Will said: "It's hard to beat that dude. He has another gear. He did two-and-a-half hours in France for 'Mission: Impossible' on the red carpet.

Now when I go to France, people will say, 'You know, Tom was out here for over two-and-a-half hours.'"

The 39-year-old actor also revealed playing boxing legend Mohammad Ali in 2001 hit 'Ali' inspired him to have more confidence in himself.

Will - whose performance earned him an Oscar nomination - explained: "When I was doing 'Ali', I realized that he kept saying, 'I'm the greatest, I'm pretty,' to make himself believe it. He doesn't believe it, but he was dealing with racism. He was reacting to pain and rejection. He said it so much that he started to really believe it. That is what I've tried to do for myself."
