Simon Pegg gets emotional as he talks about Tom Cruise and reveals what made him 'shed a tear'
Speaking on The Chris Evans Breakfast Show with The National Lottery on Virgin Radio UK, Simon admitted it was 'incredibly emotional.'
During his conversation in front of fans, he admitted that he joined the Mission: Impossible franchise for Brian De Palma's first entry in 1996 because he hoped to transform the action genre after a string of critically acclaimed performance that raised his profile in the late 1980s and early 1990s. He added that, though he didn't have a formal education in acting or film, he was able to work closely with major filmmakers — like Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg — and iconic actors — including The Color Of Money costar Paul Newman — to teach him about his craft.
