Ving Rhames, the only actor besides Tom Cruise to appear in all eight films of the “Mission: Impossible” franchise, revealed the biggest lesson about Hollywood he learned from the star.
According to the host of the series “History’s Deadliest with Ving Rhames” on the History Channel, Cruise surprised him from the very beginning with his attitude and also with his willingness to share his experience in the film industry.
According to a report by Page Six, the 69-year-old Rhames recalled filming with Cruise and said he never felt insecure while shooting the many dangerous action scenes, thanks to the firm leadership of the star of “Top Gun: Maverick”.
For Rhames, Cruise has always been very open and willing to share his knowledge: “My favorite memories are the conversations we had off set,” Rhames said. “Learning secrets he knew about the industry and that he was able to share with me.”
Rhames also spoke about the biggest lesson he received from Cruise, which, although very simple, was very important to hear: “Treat all people fairly”.
Currently, Rhames is the host, narrator and also producer of “History’s Deadliest”, a documentary series with 10 episodes that premiered in January on the History Channel.
For the actor, even with so much life experience, he was not prepared for the cases in the new show, which explores the deadliest events, people and places in history.
“I hope these stories bring knowledge. And I hope the knowledge I gain from them makes me a more complete human being,” he said.
