How Playing Fred Rogers Helped Tom Hanks’s Marriage to Rita Wilson

Everyone is beyond excited to see Tom Hanks take on the role of Fred Rogers in A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.

Recently, the actor opened up about taking some advice from the late TV legend while having a disagreement with wife Rita Wilson.

“When my wife and I are going at it on those rare occasions, when she is letting me know that I’m not really listening to her and I’m trying to establish what the ground rules are [for the argument], when we’re going at it like that, one of us will say, ‘Well, you know what? You know what, honey? It’s good to talk. It’s good to say the things we feel,’” he told Entertainment Tonight. “And I learned that from Mr. Rogers.”

LOL! We can all use that lesson from time to time, right?

A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood opens Friday.
