The couple was in Midtown, New York City, trying to get into a black SUV when a group of excited gathered around them as left the restaurant later that night.
Tom was cut off from his wife and as he was making it back to her through the crowd she cried out after getting tripped by an overzealous fan. “Whoa!” Wilson yelled. “Guys! Stop it.”
Tom was not happy and pushed his way to his wife. He turned around and let the fans have it:
“My wife!?
“Back the f*ck up!”
He berated the fans and pushed them back yelling:
“Knocking over my wife.?”
The fans apologized profusely as Tom and Rita reached their vehicle.
Tom said earlier about one of his hit movies. From CNN:
Tom Hanks, who won an Oscar for his role as a gay man with AIDS in the film “Philadelphia,” said that if the film were made today, a straight actor wouldn’t be cast in that role, and “rightly so.”
The “Elvis” actor reflected on the role in an interview this week with the New York Times’ David Marchese. The journalist asked Hanks about two of his most famous films — 1993’s “Philadelphia” and 1994’s “Forrest Gump,” in which he plays a character with undefined intellectual disabilities.
Hanks called both films “timely movies, at the time, that you might not be able to make now.”
After Marchese argued that neither film would be made today with Hanks in the same roles, Hanks agreed that a straight actor shouldn’t be cast in the “Philadelphia” role he played nearly 30 years ago.
