See What Tom Cruise’s “Mission: Impossible” Costars Have To Say About Him

Simon Pegg Describes Tom Cruise As A “Movie Star Of An Old Kind”

According to one of his costars, not only is Cruise, 60, a one-of-a-kind actor in that he can do his own stunts no matter how high the stakes are, he’s also a one-of-a-kind actor because of his inspiring leadership skills.

“Of all the mist of stuff that’s around him, in the center of that mist is a generous, sweet guy who looks after everybody,” Pegg exclusive told E! News’ Chief Correspondent Keltie Knight on the June 21 episode. “He leads from the top down. And he’s kind of inspiring to be around. There’s no one else like him, he’s the last movie star of the old kind.”

Pegg has known and worked with Cruise for a long time – nearly 20 decades and counting – so if anyone can attest to the star’s personality with his co-workers, it’s him.

“When I first met him, it was my first time to Hollywood,” he noted. “He came to set the first day we met, he immediately made me feel very welcome, very at home, was incredibly generous.”

“Over the 17 years that we’ve been friends, I feel lucky to get to see a part of him that everyone else wants to see, which is just the guy,” Pegg continued. “And he is just a guy. He’s an extraordinary guy. He’s a guy who feels the obligation to the audience to risk his life for them to kind of entertain them.”
