Tom Hanks Spotted Incognito Riding New York Subway Amid Event Cancellation Controversy

Tom Hanks was recently spotted riding the New York City subway incognito, wearing a face mask, green jacket, forest-green beanie, dark trousers, and clear plastic glasses, blending in with commuters on the 6 line. Despite his efforts to keep a low profile, a witness noted he nearly missed his stop and dropped his bag in a hurry. This is not the first time Hanks has taken public transit in disguise, as he was also seen earlier in the month on the Pelham Packer line. His use of a mask reflects a broader trend among celebrities who cover their faces to maintain privacy and prevent disease spread since the pandemic began. Besides his subway appearances, Hanks is preparing for his upcoming off-Broadway play "This World of Tomorrow," based on his 2017 book, and will return to voice a role in the upcoming "Toy Story 5." Recently, he appeared in Wes Anderson's film "The Phoenician Scheme," continuing his diverse acting career.
