Hanks' worst movie is ‘The Bonfire of the Vanities,’ a 1990s black comedy film that starred Melanie Griffith and Bruce Willis.

Hanks revealed that he and the crew thought the movie would be huge while filming and production, but they were miscast.

He also said that another reason the movie flipped was because it was a poor adaptation of the novel by Tom Wolfe.

The film had a high budget of $47 million but failed to earn it back and only made $16 million domestically.

After the movie's failure, Hanks learned more about the industry and had more creative control in subsequent films.
