An actress has come forward to accuse Tom Hanks

https://bluerockpublicradio.com/another-actress-steps-forward-accusing-tom-hanks-of-being-nice-f4eec3485206





In the latest of a series of recent allegations about the Academy Award-winning actor, actress Veronica Warren revealed Thursday that Tom Hanks was extremely kind to her on the set of the 2006 film The Da Vinci Code.
“He gave me half of his sandwich when he saw our food supply was running low,” said Warren, who was only 17 at the time. “And it wasn’t just one instance. The entire time I was on set he repeatedly exposed himself to me as a thoroughly decent human being.”



In all seriousness, if I hear that Hanks is a monster, I quit.

There are a few actors who I hold in such high esteem I would be devastated to hear that they acted inappropriately. Tom Hanks being one....Jeff Bridges, Colin Firth, Denzel Washington, George Clooney, Idris Elba are among others. I’m not saying that I would expect any of these men to be perfect, or not have some skeletons in their closets.
