From grueling days filming, to re-writing scripts to squabbling stars on movies sets. Tom Hanks has opened up about some of his dark days on film sets, confessing that there have been instances of bad behavior.
The Forrest Gump actor has released his decade-spanning debut novel, The Making of Another Motion Picture Masterpiece, which focuses on the release of a fictional multi-million-dollar superhero movie and introduces readers to the ‘colorful’ cast, including a ‘pompous film star on the rise’.
The character in the book has been described as disruptive and someone who delayed filming, something that seems worlds away from the 66-year-old – who is regarded as one of the nicest people in Hollywood.
However, speaking to the BBC about his book, he revealed that aspects of the character were similar to his own antics.
‘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.
