Simon Pegg has spoken about working with Tom Cruise saying he really likes hanging out with him and that he's just an "ordinary man".
The pair have co-starred in three Mission: Impossible movies and Pegg told The Sunday Tmes magazine that he enjoys spending time with Cruise, "I really like hanging out with him.
"We do these workouts together, which are a lot of fun. There's a lot of high-flying. A lot of fist-bumps. I get to see his Clark Kent side, d'you know what I mean? And it's interesting because the closer you get to Tom, the less complex he becomes. As the clouds of ridiculousness thin, there's this kind of... this ordinary man. You realise he's just a kid from Kentucky who's done well...
He added, "I've known him for 10 years and [Scientology has] never come up. It's not something he talks about or preaches. I don't know what the story is. The thing about Tom is that he doesn't participate with the public persona of himself, or do anything to alter it. In fact I think he's quite happy to allow a degree of mystique to flow around him, because it makes him more enigmatic and more interesting as an actor."
Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation hits cinemas in July.
