During an interview to promote his upcoming film _Inferno_, the 60-year-old actor criticized the [the remarks about women](http://time.com/4523972/donald-trumps-comment-root-sexual-violence/ "undefined") that Trump made during a leaked 2005 conversation with former _Access Hollywood_ co-host Billy Bush. “He was at work, man. He wasn’t in a locker room,” Hanks said, referencing the GOP candidate’s response to the comments as [“locker room” talk](http://time.com/4526039/donald-trump-locker-room-athletes/ "undefined"). “He was at work. He was showing up to do a thing on camera. Look, I’m offended as a man. I’m not offended as a husband or a father. I’m offended as a guy. That’s just not right, I’m sorry. It’s not right at work, it’s not right in the locker room. It’s wrong, period. The end. That’s all.” Watch the full clip above.
