Tom Hanks Went Off After Fans Almost Knocked His Wife Over
“Imagine being shouted at by Tom Hanks. I would simply never recover.”
The internet got slightly surprised as they saw Tom Hanks blowing up at fans after his wife was almost knocked over in public. The actor screamed at the crowd to “back the f**k off” from them.
Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, his wife, were just going home after a night out at a luxurious restaurant in New York.
The 65-year-old duo was quickly crowded by paparazzi and fans the moment they walked out of the location to go to their car. The crowd soon got uncomfortably surrounding them and tried to get their attention.
It almost brought into a scuffle as a man right behind Rita almost knocked her over, seemingly because a guy behind him bumped into him because he wasn’t paying attention in front of him.
Rita yelped and turned over to tell them to “stop it.”
Hanks, who immediately checked for Rita, pushed the nearest guy back with his bodyguard helping him out and told the ones behind him, “Back the f**k off… knocking over my wife.”
His fans backed off, mostly apologetic, with one heard saying, “Sorry about that.”
Users were commenting on how Hanks broke his good-guy persona with the expletive yelling that seemed to surprise a fanboy that was also present there. One commented, “Imagine being shouted at by Tom Hanks. I would simply never recover.”
Some gushed over how Hanks jumped immediately to protect his wife.

This comes just weeks after Hanks spoke about “Elvis,” a biopic where he starred in the role of Col. Tom Parker, Elvis’ talent manager.
He decided to talk about one of his most prominent works, ‘The Da Vinci Code,’ and called the sequels “hooey.” He promised he wasn’t being cynical, though!
He told The New York Times, “Oh, God, that was a commercial enterprise.”
“Yeah, those Robert Langdon sequels are hooey. ‘The Da Vinci Code’ was hooey. I mean, Dan Brown, God bless him, says, ‘Here is a sculpture in a place in Paris! No, it’s way over there. See how a cross is formed on a map? Well, it’s sort of a cross.'”
In comparison, the movie was as “delightful scavenger hunts that are about as accurate to history as the James Bond movies are to espionage.”
“They brought me a birthday cake in the Grand Salon! Who gets to have that experience? Any cynicism there? Hell no!” he followed up.
