Tom Cruise is incensed with the reports, saying he claimed to be a reincarnation of English playwright Shakespeare
The rumour spread like wild fire after an internet hoax in which a spoof interview with the star went on the web.
In the fictitious 'interview', Cruise is also alleged to have stated he previously dated current fiancee Katie Holmes in a previous life, claiming she visited him while he was "in prison" and that he has lived several times before and has currently been re-born as a prophet destined to spread the teachings of the Church of Scientology - of which Cruise is a devout follower.
However, furious Tom has denied the claims insisting the 'quotes' are in fact the work of internet hoaxers, determined to ridicule his belief in the sci-fi cult.
The interview quoted Cruise as saying, "I was much happier in previous existences when I wrote plays, composed music, conquered nations, discovered continents and developed cures for diseases."
A spokesman for 43-year-old actor said: "This interview is a total fabrication. Tom did not say those things."
