Vaughn and Aniston have been photographed cuddling on the set of the "The Break Up," but Vaughn says the two are just friends. He said he is furious that people think he would take advantage of the 36-year-old beauty so soon after her split from husband Brad Pitt, World Entertainment News reported Wednesday.

"We're making a film together, man." he said. "Jennifer's a sweet girl, but she's very vulnerable right now and has been through a really hard time. I know people would love it if we were dating, but we're not. She doesn't need to cry on my shoulder."

Aniston has also denied reports of a romance.
