Tom Cruise is widely regarded as one of the biggest and most bankable film stars, known for his decades-long career, high-grossing films, and dedication to performing his own dangerous stunts, making him
a global Hollywood icon. In his career spanning years, he has been a part of several blockbusters, including the Mission: Impossible franchise, Top Gun : Maverick and The Last Samurai, among others.
As the 63-year-old actor continues to win hearts with his performances, recent reports suggest that he is currently upset with a talent agency, and the reason is Pedro Pascal.
Tom Cruise Upset With Talent Agency
According to a report by Marca, the Knight and Day actor is miffed at his agency, Creative Artists Agency (CAA), for paying more attention to fellow actor Pedro Pascal, who is in the middle of his career’s golden run right now.
Tom had always been the agency’s most marketable face, and, according to the report, ‘being the most important male celebrity under that label was always a status symbol’ for him.
The source further added that Pascal, on the other hand, “maintains a relaxed and uninterested attitude towards rivalries.” As per the report, both actors have met without any problems between them.
