Actor Tom Hiddleston, who replaced Benedict Cumberbatch in in the upcoming horror movie "Crimson Peak", says that the two share a cordial bond.
Cumberbatch was dropped out of the Guillermo Del Toro-directed movie, slated to release in 2015. Hiddleston said that his friend Cumberbatch didn't mind, reports showbizspy.com.
"He's one of my best friends. It's as simple as that. It's a great script and I've been a fan of Guillermo del Toro forever. I think he's amazing," said Hiddleston.
"He's made no secret this is an English-language film that's very close to the sensibility of his Spanish-language films. I've always wanted to make a good horror film and there's no one at the moment in the world of Guillermo's equal," he added.
The duo played officers in director Steven Spielberg's "War Horse" (2010).
