Great performers are usually big showoffs; like superstar TOM HANKS, who started goofing around on the set of “Saving Mr. Banks” – his new flick about the making of Disney’s “Mary Poppins” – dazzling cast mates EMMA THOMPSON, COLIN FARRELL and the entire company when he began channeling Mary’s on-screen antics, twirling and juggling several umbrellas!
Oscar winner Tom – who plays WALT DISNEY in the film – got gasps and even a round of applause as he expertly twirled his bumbershoots until….OOWWW!...a sudden slip of the hand jetted one umbrella tip straight into his left eye!
“Tom’s cry of pain terrified everyone – it sounded like he’d been badly hurt,” said an inside source.
