While the cinematic achievements of John Wayne<\/a> are undoubted, having seen the Academy Award-winner give fine performances in the likes of Stagecoach, The Searchers and True Grit, it\u2019s fair to say that The Duke possessed a public persona that undoubtedly detracted from his on-screen brilliance.<\/p>\n

Time and time again, Wayne mouthed off with his right-wing views and racist opinions<\/a>, leading to a divisive nature when it came to his overall assessment. Sure, Wayne delivered some of Western cinema\u2019s greatest moments, but he largely tarnished his reputation by essentially being one of the film industry\u2019s biggest pieces of shit.<\/p>\n

There were also several occasions on which Wayne offered his damning assessments<\/a> of his fellow movie industry figures, showing that the person he really cared about the most was himself. Naturally, this led some of the other actors of Wayne\u2019s era to come to an equally scathing conclusion about his personal qualities.<\/p>\n

While Wayne\u2019s popularity with audiences rarely wavered during his lifetime, many of his peers found him far less appealing behind the scenes. His outspoken political views, combative personality and tendency to dismiss opinions that differed from his own often put him at odds with fellow performers.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve compiled a list of the actors who seemed to have no time for Wayne, either as an actor on the screen or as a man away from it. From modern legends to classic Hollywood heroes, here are the five actors who hated The Duke the most.<\/p>\n

The reasons for these disagreements varied considerably. Some objected to Wayne\u2019s politics, others criticised his acting ability, while a handful simply found his behaviour difficult to tolerate. Whatever the cause, the disputes helped shape Wayne\u2019s reputation as one of Hollywood\u2019s most polarising figures.<\/p>\n
