Tom Hanks rewards polite fans with a photo after relaxing on a Gold Coast beach

He’s the living legend who is currently on Australia’s Gold Coast filming Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Presley biopic.

And on Saturday, Tom Hanks rewarded two polite fans with a photo, after they waited until he was in a less crowded area before approaching the mega-star. 

One of the fans later said that the 63-year-old was ‘unbelievable’, praising the Hollywood star for not being like other ‘d**kheads in the celebrity space’. 

‘Day at the beach and got to meet Tom Hanks. Proper legend too,’ the fan, who goes by Frankie Jay Lee, wrote in the caption, after sharing his selfie with the Big star. 

He went on to explain: ‘Clocked him early on my walk but didn’t want to catch him in front of so many people so ran ahead and he’s like, ‘I knew you got me’.’  

Frankie, a pro boxing trainer based on the Gold Coast, later shared multiple Instagram Stories in which he elaborated on the chance encounter. 

‘We clocked him walking down the beach and I’m telling ya, and we thought, better not pulling over in front of all these people people so we went back up the beach.

And was like, ‘you got me boys, you got me’. He’s like, ‘let’s have a photo’. F**king unbelievable guy, unbelievable guy. 

‘There’s some f**king d**kheads in the celebrity space, but Tom Hanks, what a guy. What an absolute guy. Proper made my day that did, proper made my day,’ he gushed in the video. 

Earlier this month, two other fans met the Forrest Gump actor while out to dinner at a trendy Mexican restaurant Bonita Bonita. 

Tom hilariously posed with the pair, melodramatically pretending to have a conversation. 

‘When you have to ask Tom Hanks how he actually got off that godforsaken island,’ one of the fans wrote in his caption.
