TOM & BRAD ON COLLISION COURSE!

THEIR 29-YEAR RIVALRY REVS UP AGAIN

Rewind the clock to 1994, and the names Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise were on the tip of everyone’s tongue. Both had enjoyed success with their respective breakout films, Thelma & Louise and Risky Business, but their names were finally in lights together co-starring in Interview with the Vampire. The double act prompted critics to rightly predict that the new A-list had arrived.

With their matching upbringings in rural Missouri and similar trajectory to fame, many expected Brad and Tom’s days on set of the Anne Rice adaptation would start a lifelong friendship. But it soon became clear that would never be the case.

“He bugged me,” Brad complained at the time. “There came a point in filming that I really started resenting him. He’s North Pole, I’m South.”
