Newman was the better actor.

McQueen was cooler.

Two of my all-time favorite actors (with Lee Marvin, Robert Mitchum, and John Wayne).

Overall edge to Newman for Cool Hand Luke and Hud.

I read a McQueen bio once and he really didn't like Newman, who was his main billboard rival. The only film they appeared in together was The Towering Inferno and I'm pretty sure they didn't speak to each other off-set.

Back in the 60's and 70's

McQueen was looked at as being cool.


Newman was looked at as an actor.
