Steven Spielberg wants to venture into romantic comedy

However, Spielberg, 68, said he would like to take a break from dramas and tackle a whole new film genre after branding Hanks’ 1993 classic “Sleepless in Seattle”.

“One of the films that I just think is one of the best things Tom has ever done, is Sleepless in Seattle,” he told US breakfast show “Good Morning America”.

“I’ve never made a movie like that before; I would love to do a movie like that with this guy.”

The pair’s other movies include 2002’s “Catch Me If You Can” and 2004 comedy-drama “The Terminal”. The moviemaker said working with Hanks is always a delight because the actor is such a chameleon.

“For me, everything that Tom does is a surprise to me because I don’t recognize him.”
