Tom Hanks has said that he would be happy to sit anywhere at the inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama as long as he gets to watch the ceremony.
The Oscar-winning actor pledged his support for Obama in a MySpace video in May, claiming that he has "character and vision" and took "the high road" during his campaign.
"Look, I'll be in the back. I'll sit on the Lincoln steps and just watch it from the distance on a Jumbotron," he said at a benefit for the UCLA School of Theatre, Film and Television.
"I've never been to anything like that and, finally, a guy I voted for won. That hasn't happened most of my life."
The inauguration ceremony takes place on January 20.
