A beady-eyed fan spotted Hollywood star couple Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson enjoying dinner at a popular Egyptian restaurant in Cairo.
The couple were spotted enjoying a traditional Egyptian feast along with a group of people at the Abou El Sid restaurant in the Zamalek ward in Cairo, Cairo Scene reported. The video was uploaded by a user named Youssef Shahid on Instagram before it went viral.
While the reason for the visit is unclear, Hanks is set to release his first stab at a full-length novel next month. Titled “The Making of Another Major Motion Picture Masterpiece,” the book will follow “the making of a star-studded, multi million-dollar superhero action film … and the humble comic books that inspired it,” according to Penguin Random House.
“Every character in the book does something I’ve experienced while making a movie, as well as discovered a philosophy or learned an important lesson,” Hanks told People magazine in an earlier interview. “Even the foolish moments are some kind of stunt I’ve pulled or mistake I’ve survived.”
The novel marks Hanks’ second foray into book writing. In 2017, he penned a best-selling collection of short stories called “Uncommon Type.”
