Tom Hanks and his wife, Rita Wilson, were in Cannes for the premiere of the movie “Asteroid City”.

As the actor posed for photographers with the film’s co-stars, a Festival employee approached him and they then appeared to have a heated exchange. In the photos, the actor appears to be very angry, with actress and producer Rita Wilson speaking loudly while making hand gestures.

According to the Dailymail, the festival official dressed in a smart tuxedo suit was seen explaining to the couple in an attempt to defuse the situation. However, Hanks was flustered throughout their red carpet chat.

After the episode the pair continued to walk the red carpet with photographers capturing them before joining the cast of the film.

The actor’s wife, a few hours later, in her post on instastories, wrote: “This is called: “I can’t hear you”. People are screaming. ”What did you say; Where are we supposed to stand?” But that doesn’t sell stories. Nice try. We had a wonderful time. Go see Asteroid City.’
