Los Angeles, Dec 1(AZINS) Justin Theroux's representative has dismissed reports suggesting the actor made an offensive remark about the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the United States.

There were reports that Jennifer Aniston's husband had suggested that the attacks in 2001 were good for the residents of New York because they were able to get a great deal on rent, reported E! Online. A source added, Theroux said the landlord was so mad about the attacks that he practically threw the keys at him. Theroux's representative said, "As a New Yorker and someone who has lived downtown for over 20 years, Justin would not make jest of 9/11."
