Mark Wahlberg Denies Slamming Tom Cruise Saying, ‘I Didn't Know That It Was Tom Cruise Who Had Said That’ But The ‘Lone Survivor’ Star Was Firm On His Previous Comments

Looks like Tom Cruise has made some enemies on his comments about comparing his job as an actor to the soldiers in Afghanistan.

"Three Kings" actor Mark Wahlberg slams actors who are said to be comparing their jobs to those who are in the military service during the screening of his movie "Lone Survivor."

"For actors to sit there and talk about 'Oh, I went to SEAL training,' and 'I slept on the' - I don't give a f**k what you did," he said during the Q&A portion of the event.

"You don't do what these guys did. For somebody to sit there and say my job was as difficult as somebody in the military's. How f**king dare you. While you sit in a makeup chair for two hours."

Based on Wahlberg's rants rumors began circulating that the actor was slamming Tom Cruise, who compared the time that he had to spent away from his daughter Suri while the movie is on production to that of a soldier's duty in Afghanistan.

According to TMZ, Cruise was quoted saying that it felt like he was at war during the filming of Oblivion - he was pertaining to the time he spent away from home. In addition, he also said that it felt like he was in an Olympic training when during the latest installment of Mission Impossible 5.

Wahlberg continues on his comment during the screening event saying:

"I don't give a s**t if you get your a** busted," he said.

"You get to go home at the end of the day. You get to go to your hotel room. You get to order f**king chicken, or your steak. Whatever the f**k it is."

However, when Mark Wahlberg was asked by TMZ on Wednesday whether his comments were meant for Tom Cruise, he rebutted by saying:

"I didn't know that it was Tom Cruise who had said that," Wahlberg explains. "Somebody had just mentioned that people were comparing [acting and being in the military]. I love Tom Cruise. He's a great actor. I have the utmost respect for Tom Cruise, but I have the utmost respect for military guys; it's just unfair for anybody to comment on that."
