Tom hanks has the reputation of being the nicest actor in Hollywood, but in a new BBC interview, Hanks made the surprising admission that even he sometimes indulges in rude behavior.

He is promoting his new book, which is inspired by his own career in Hollywood. One of the story's characters is an egotistical actor who disrupts and delays filming

“I have pulled every single one of those moments of behavior myself on a set,” Hanks admits. “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.”
