Rio Bravo official trailer with John Wayne<\/h3>\n

Steve McQueen may have been known for being a Hollywood tough guy who feuded with the likes of Yul Brynner and Paul Newman.<\/p>\n

Yet The Great Escape star had a huge admiration for John Wayne, having grown up watching the Western legend.<\/p>\n

McQueen\u2019s biographer Marshall Terrill recalled: \u201cMcQueen greatly respected the Duke and held him up as the gold standard for movie stars.”<\/p>\n

The pair enjoyed the occasional cheeky antics together, including one time at the 1966 Golden Globes.<\/p>\n

Hanging out backstage waiting to go on, Wayne realised he didn\u2019t have time to find the restroom so began peeing against a wall or on a curtain.<\/p>\n

McQueen spotted Duke relieving himself and couldn\u2019t stop laughing before joining him for a leak.<\/p>\n

According to The Great Escape star\u2019s widow Barbara Minty, he would remember this encounter with a \u201chuge smile\u201d.<\/p>\n

And now John Wayne\u2019s estate have shared a picture of the two late stars hugging, with a sweet line by McQueen on Duke.<\/p>\n
