Oscar winning actor Tom Hanks is notorious for being one of the nicest people in Hollywood, but some overzealous fans proved even he has a breaking point.

Uproxx reported Hanks and his wife of 34 years, actress and producer Rita Wilson, recently experienced a frightening encounter with fans in New York City.

Hanks quickly defended his wife:

"My wife? Back the f–k off! Knocking over my wife?!”

The fan can be heard apologizing after Hank's reprimand.

People on Twitter sympathized with Hanks, agreeing the fans were out of control.




Our favorite actors are only human.

This is a great example of when fans overstep boundaries.

Family first, folks.
