CANNES, FRANCE: Tom Hanks appeared to rebuke a staffer during his red carpet walk at the Cannes Film Festival for his new film 'Asteroid City' on Tuesday, May 23, 2023. The actor looked frustrated as he pointed his finger at the man while attending the event alongside his wife Rita Wilson, who also stars in the film. Wilson was seen holding her hand up in front of her as she spoke to the staffer.
The unidentified man seemed to be trying to calm the situation. Hanks, however, continued to look annoyed but eventually walked down the red carpet to pose for photos. Hank was seen in a classic black tuxedo and matching bow tie, which he wore with a white shirt.
