Tom Hanks and Bryan Cranston had some fun with the photogs during the “Phoenician Scheme” red carpet Wednesday night.
Hanks, 68, was posing for a movie studio photographer when the other paps began joking that the snapper was taking too long.
“I want to be right where [the other photographers are],” Hanks exclaimed, jokingly gesturing that he wanted to move along to pose for the others.
The “Forrest Gump” star then jokingly yelled at one cameraman to “shut the f–k up,” causing all of the assembled photographers to break out into peals of laughter.
Hanks wasn’t the only star to charm the shutterbugs.
Bryan Cranston also pulled out the stops when someone noted his tie was slightly crooked.
“My tie is askew!” he exclaimed before sarcastically telling a photographer off for not alerting him to the sartorial mishap.
“Thanks for letting me know my tie was askew,” the “Breaking Bad” alum, 69, deadpanned.
“I’m going to come out with a line of ties called Askew!” he joyfully added.
Hanks and Cranston weren’t the only big stars to pose at the Jazz at Lincoln Center screening.
Benicio del Toro, Mia Threapleton, Scarlett Johansson, Michael Cera, Steve Park and Hope Davis also posed along with director Wes Anderson.
After the screening, the starry crowd trekked to the swanky Metropolitan Club.
Guests included Matthew Broderick, Jon Hamm, Gina Gershon, Steve Buscemi and Catherine Keener.
“The Phoenician Scheme” follows wealthy businessman, Zsa-zsa Korda (del Toro), who, along with his daughter, a nun (Threapleton), embarks on a new enterprise filled with eccentric tycoons, determined assassins and charming revolutionaries.
