Bruce Willis 'denies Kevin Smith rift'

Bruce Willis has dismissed rumours of a feud with Hollywood filmmaker Kevin Smith after the director reportedly lashed out at a recent event for their new film A Couple Of Dicks.

Willis was noticeably absent from the forthcoming movie's wrap party in New York, fuelling speculation that the pair have clashed over the action star's demands to add his own creative input to the picture.

According to the National Enquirer, the helmer took advantage of Willis's absence to criticise him in a scathing toast, apparently telling guests: "I want to thank everyone who worked on the film, except for Bruce Willis... who is a f**king d**k!"

However, Willis has maintained that there is no bad blood between the pair. His spokesperson said: "There is absolutely no rift between Bruce Willis and Kevin Smith. Bruce very much enjoyed working with Kevin Smith as well as his co-star Tracey Morgan.

"The only reason Mr. Willis was not at the wrap party for the film is that he was in Los Angeles taking part in a press junket and press activities for his movie Surrogate."
