Russell Brand admits he was disappointed when Tom Cruise didn't try and convert him to Scientology, after the pair starred alongside one another in Rock of Ages.

He dropped many hints about being interested in the faith to Tom, but says he thinks he's too much of a "trouble maker" to even be considered.
He said: "What I done was, I would just mooch around and look a bit down in the dumps, by Tom Cruise's trailer and sometimes when we were doing a scene, I'd go, 'Oh Tom, [if only there was a system] for all these feelings and thoughts I have and sometimes I wonder what's the point Tom, is there a God? Isn't there? Is there some way of analysing this data?'
"He was not interested. He couldn't give a monkeys about trying to sign me up. I was gutted. They thought I was a trouble maker probably. (sic)"
Despite his spiritual disappointment, Russell has no hard feelings and thinks Tom is a "nice" man.
He added on his audioBoom podcast: "He's ever so nice... He bought me a yoga mat.
"He's brilliant isn't he, Tom Cruise and he's so kind."
