It seems that even proverbial 'nice guy' Tom Hanks has thrown the occasional tantrum on set.
‘I have pulled every single one of those moments of behavior myself on a set,’ the Toy Story actor said. ‘Not everybody is at their best every single day on a motion picture set.
‘I’ve had tough days trying to be a professional when my life has been falling apart in more ways than one and the requirement for me that day is to be funny, charming and loving – and it’s the last way I feel.‘What cannot occur on a motion picture is that someone cannot monkey around with the timing or the length of the shoot or the budget. That is a cardinal sin in the motion picture business.’
‘You will be amazed,’ he added to the outlet. ‘At how many people know that they can get away with it, and are told they can get away with it, because they are carrying the movie on their shoulders.’, including Cast Away, Elvis, Big, The Terminal and A Man Called Otto – and has taken home a string of awards for his efforts – including two best actor Oscars, five Golden Globes and two Screen Actors Guild trophies.
The official synopsis for the novel reads: ‘A wildly ambitious story of the making of a colossal, star-studded, multimillion-dollar superhero action film, and the humble comic book that inspired it all.
