Tommy Lee Jones is hardly a Jim Carrey fan. The two award-winning actors worked together on 1995's Batman Forever, but their relationship was far from cooperative when the cameras weren't rolling. Carrey played the Riddler alongside Jones' Two-Face with Val Kilmer in the role of the Caped Crusader.

Carrey, 52, was asked about his time with Jones when he appeared on The Howard Stern Show on Tuesday, Oct. 28, in promotion of his upcoming movie Dumb and Dumber To.

"When you were doing Batman Forever, when you were making that, the legend goes that you were on the set fighting with this guy Tommy Lee Jones the whole time," Howard Stern began. "The two of you did not get along at all, you annoyed him, he annoyed you…"

The comedian did not deny the claims and reflected back to his time filming the superhero movie with Jones, now 68.

"I think what happened was, I was really looking forward to working with Tommy because he's a fantastic actor and he still is to me, I mean he's amazing, but he was a little crusty, he was a little crusty," Carrey said, going on to joke about Jones' Ivy League education. "Sometimes that Rhodes Scholarship is more of a weapon than an asset."

"I think he was just a little freaked out because Dumb and Dumber came out on the same weekend as Cobb, and Cobb was his big swing for the fences and that didn't work out and that freaked him out a bit I think," the actor continued, referencing Jones' 1994 Ty Cobb biopic, which opened to mixed reviews from critics and less-than-stellar box office numbers.

Any suspicions Carrey had that Jones felt negatively about him were confirmed one night during the filming of Batman Forever.

"I walked into a restaurant the night before our big scene in the Riddler's lair and the maitre'd said, 'You're working with Tommy Lee Jones, aren't you?' And I said 'Yeah, I am.' He said, 'He's in the back corner, he's having dinner.' I said, 'Oh, great, I'll go say hi.'" Carrey told Stern. "I went up to say hi and the blood drained from his face, in such a way that I realized that I had become the face of his pain or something."

"He got up, kind of shaking, and hugged me and said 'I hate you. I really don't like you,'" Carrey added. "I was like 'Wow, okay. Well, what's going on man?' And he said, 'I cannot sanction your buffoonery.' He did not want to work with me at that point."
