Tom Cruise Angry at Leah Remini for Anti-Scientology Interview, Leaving Church?

King of Queens star Leah Remini recently appeared in a sit-down interview on 20/20 explaining her reasoning for leaving the Church of Scientology, a place she had been a part of since she was a child. During the interview, Remini candidly spoke about the Church's most famous name, Tom Cruise, and admitted that to those in the church, if you speak out against Cruise, you are undoubtedly "evil." And, well, apparently Cruise caught wind of the interview because he is allegedly pretty angry.

It's being reported that the 53-year-old Mission: Impossible star is "freaking out" over Remini's comments.

Sources close to Us Weekly note that Cruise believes Remini's interview, along with her recent memoir, is a "major betrayal" to both him and the Church. She spoke during the interview about calling out Cruise while she was in Scientology for his antics when he began his relationship with actress Katie Holmes.

Naturally, given Cruise's notoriety and close ties with the Church's leader, David Miscavige, that didn't sit well with the higher ups and she was eventually pushed away from the actor and Holmes.

Remini's book, Troublemaker: Surviving Hollywood and Scientology, touches on Tom Cruise and his significance in the Scientology community. She details a number of stories about the actor, specifically one about his behavior during a baking incident in which he had a "meltdown" trying to making some cookies. He reportedly yelled at several assistants around him when he was seeking some ingredients.

Apparently, according to Remini, they were in front of Cruise the whole time.

So, though Tom Cruise might be pissed at Leah Remini, it appears Troublemaker is doing quite well on the charts. Therefore, well, who cares, right?
