Tom Hanks Meeting The Cast Of 'Hustlers' Is Too Pure For This World

You dont remain the most likable man in Hollywood for decades without a respect for the hustle, so it was only natural that Tom Hanks found a kindred spirit in Jennifer Lopez and her fellow Hustlers cast during a celebrity run-in we never knew we needed.

It was game recognize game at the Toronto Film Festival over the weekend when Hanks, who was in town to promote his Mister Rogers film A Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood, crashed a photo call with Lopez, Julia Stiles, Keke Palmer, Constance Wu and Hustlers director Lorene Scafaria.

Both films at the festival earned rave reviews and serious Oscar buzz yes, prepare for a potential future where Jennifer Lopez is known as Oscar nominee Jennifer Lopez so a meeting of the casts was basically an Avengers-level event.

After they spotted each other across the room, Lopez yelled Its the hustlers! at a clearly enthused Hanks, who parted the publicity seas and made his way over to the women.

Listen, I dont have on any lip gloss. Am I allowed to stand over there? he asked.

And in true Mister Rogers form, he took the time to greet each member of the cast before they all posed for a group photo.

But Hanks wasnt exactly tuned into the Hustlers buzz, asking first if they were all in the same movie together.

The only thing Ive heard about your movie is that it could use a little Tom Hanks, he said before walking away to cheers from the cast.
