At the New York City debut of his most recent humor-filled film production, written and helmed by Wes Anderson, Tom Hanks playfully reprimands the snapping photographers, evoking memories in pop culture fans of the moment when Chappel Roan stood up to an impolite shutterbug.
At the debut of The Phoenician Scheme on May 28, Hanks entertained with his familiar wit on the red carpet, playfully teasing photographers, which soon became a popular topic online.
While strolling along the red carpet, the 68-year-old celebrity found himself surrounded by flashing cameras, causing him to suddenly stop. Annoyed yet playful, Hanks called out to the photographers, urging them to hurry so he could move forward to meet the journalists lined up for an interview.
In a humorous, unscripted incident filmed by MTV UK and later posted online, Tom Hanks playfully criticized the press for their comfortable work conditions. During a video clip shared by the media outlet on day X, Hanks remarked, “Could you speed things up so I can get to these people… You with your comfortable jobs.
At one instance, he feigned an angry outburst, ordering them to “quiet down”, while sporting a broad smile.
Tom Hanks shines in Wes Anderson’s latest star-studded comedy
In a more casual style: Hanks, known for his comedic talent and being everyone’s favorite guy, was out promoting his latest film alongside Benicio Del Toro, Scarlett Johansson, Willem Dafoe, and Bryan Cranston. Joining them are Mia Threapleton, Michael Cera, Riz Ahmed, Jeffrey Wright, Benedict Cumberbatch, Hope Davis, Rupert Friend, and Bill Murray, among others.
In the movie, rich entrepreneur Zsa-zsa Korda designates his sole daughter, who is a nun, as the inheritor of his property. As Korda launches a new venture, they both find themselves under attack by cunning tycoons, dangerous terrorists from abroad, and relentless assassins.
In the movie, Cranston, playing Tom Hanks’ brother, joined in on the lively banter, causing the media to laugh. A photographer noticed that Cranston’s tie was crooked and pointed it out, to which he humorously responded, “Oh, I see my tie is off-kilter! Thanks for letting me know.
He further added, “I’m going to come out with a line of ties called Askew!”
The Phoenician Scheme arrived in theaters on May 30, 2025.
