Elizabeth Murphy and Ryan Barclay were posing for wedding photos along a path in New York City’s Central Park. It was already an exciting day in their lives. Murphy was wearing a beautiful, white wedding dress. Barclay was wearing a formal black suit called a tuxedo. And then, actor Tom Hanks showed up. He was exercising in the park. He was wearing shorts, a t-shirt and a sweatshirt. The couple was surprised when he walked up and introduced himself. He said, “Hi, I’m Tom Hanks.” Elizabeth asked, “Can we get a photo with you?” And he said, “By all means.” Video and photos from the encounter are being shared on social media this week. Hanks is one of the most popular movie actors of all time. He is known for playing Forrest Gump; a stranded traveler on a small island in “Cast Away”; and Woody the cowboy in the “Toy Story” animated films. His current film, “Sully,” is the top new movie in the U.S.
