It could be the tiff that no one saw coming. Tom Cruise is apparently jealous of fellow Hollywood star Pedro Pascal. Pedro has has a stratospheric rise to fame in recent years, and insiders say Tom is seething about it. Surely there’s room for both in Tinseltown?
Is Tom Cruise threatened by Pedro Pascal’s popularity?
He may have a reputation for being one of the nicest guys in Hollywood, but Tom Cruise may be a bit of a bitch behind the scenes. According to insiders, the A-lister has become increasingly annoyed by Pedro Pascal’s rising popularity.
The pair are under the wing of the same talent agency, Creative Artists, which may be adding fuel to the fire. Tom is said to be upset about Pedro’s series of hit movies, including The Fantastic Four: First Steps and Materialists. A source told Radar Online: “Pedro is pretty easygoing and couldn’t care less, but Tom is not happy at all. He takes his crown as the world’s biggest star very seriously and can be typically ultra-intense about it.”
While a bit of professional competition is healthy, sources say Tom may be taking things too far. One insider claims the star will stop at nothing to retain his status as Hollywood’s leading man – even risking his own life. The source said: “Tom will stop at absolutely nothing to stay on top, no matter the risks. It might kill him one day, but – in his mind – at least he’ll go out on top.”
Tom set a Guinness World Record on the latest Mission: Impossible set for ‘most burning parachute jumps by an individual.’ He did an impressive 16 jumps.
The accusations come after Tom’s alleged long-held feud with Brad Pitt is said to have come to an end recently.
