Washington (USA): BRUCE WILLIS has brushed off rumors of a feud with Hollywood filmmaker KEVIN SMITH - after the director reportedly lashed out at a recent event for their new film A COUPLE OF DICKS.

Willis was noticeably absent from the wrap party in New York, fueling reports the pair has been at odds over the action star's demands to add his own creative input to the film.

According to the National Enquirer, Smith took advantage of his star's absence to criticize him in a scathing toast, reportedly telling guests: "I want to thank everyone who worked on the film, except for Bruce Willis... who is a f**king d**k!"

However, Willis insists there's no bad blood between the pair.

His spokesperson tells, "There is absolutely no rift between Bruce Willis and Kevin Smith. Bruce very much enjoyed working with Kevin Smith as well as his co-star Tracey Morgan. The only reason Mr. Willis was not at the wrap party for the film is that he was in Los Angeles taking part in a press junket and press activities for his movie Surrogate."
