London, Sep 11 (PTI) Hollywood star Meg Ryan feels veteran actor Tom Hanks is an acting "master".
The 54-year-old actress cast the Oscar-winning star for her directorial debut, "Ithaca", which is set during the early days of World War II, and Ryan is thrilled Hanks has supported her by agreeing to feature in the movie, reported Female First.
Ryan, who previously starred opposite 60-year-old Hanks in the 1998 comedy-drama "You've Got Mail", said, "He really did me this huge favour. I mean, he's so great. And he did not have to come all the way to Virginia and do this teeny movie.
He's just such a master."
The movie centres on the story of 14-year-old Homer Macauley, who becomes the man of the house after his father dies and his older brother joins the military.
