Showing his hip sense of style, director Steven opted for a pastel look as he greeted the crowd waiting outside the hotel.

Tom opted for a more casual ensemble as he and his wife left the hotel to head into the French city.

The Hollywood favorites enjoyed a double date at Lapérouse restaurant with their wives Rita Wilson and Kate Capshaw after the women enjoyed a day of shopping on Wednesday.

The couple decided to let their husbands take center stage at the D-Day anniversary event, as they made the most of the French capital’s designer boutiques with a touch of retail therapy.

However, the foursome were back together for dinner when Tom, 67, cut a smart figure in a navy blue button-up blazer and white T-shirt as he held hands with Rita.

Tom and Steven were among the big names present in Normandy after famously starring in and directing the war epic Saving Private Ryan.

The 1998 Oscar-winning epic Saving Private Ryan portrayed the events of the fateful day in 1945 when the tide in World War II turned in favor of the Allies, and dozens of world leaders accompanied the events.

The pair joined the crowd at the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial in Colleville-sur-Mer, which overlooks Omaha Beach.

There were tears among those present as memories were read from veterans who survived the conflict.

Nearly 160,000 Allied troops landed in Normandy on June 6, 1944. Of these, 73,000 were from the United States and 83,000 from Great Britain and Canada. Forces from several other countries were also involved, including French troops fighting with General Charles de Gaulle.

The Allies faced approximately 50,000 German troops.

Spielberg’s father, Arnold, was drafted into the U.S. Army in January 1942, a month after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Thanks to his skills with radio equipment, Arnold was assigned to the Signal Corps.

He eventually rose to the rank of communications chief in the 409th Bomb Squadron stationed in India. It is estimated that the Spielberg family lost as many as twenty relatives in Nazi concentration camps. Arnold passed away in 2020.

This year, Hanks and Spielberg teamed up again to produce the Apple TV+ series Masters of the Air.

Their Majesties King Charles and Queen Camilla were joined at the event by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, Labor leader Sir Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron.

Charles joined President Macron, Sunak and military leaders in laying poppy wreaths at the monument as Elgar’s Nimrod was performed by a brass band in the background, while the national anthems of France and the United Kingdom were also played as the Red Arrows roared overhead.

Elsewhere, Prince William was seen at Juno Beach, where thousands of Canadian troops died, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ahead of an international meeting later in the day that was also expected to be attended by US President Joe Biden.

The veterans in attendance were recognized by the crowd for their efforts, with their numbers dwindling with each passing year – at the 75th anniversary five years ago, 255 traveled to France, compared to the 50 who made the trip this time.

In Ver-sur-Mer, Charles led 2,000 dignitaries, soldiers and veterans in paying tribute to those who stormed the beaches.

The monarch looked emotional as he listened to singer Johnny Flynn perform ‘Song with no Name’ in tribute to the fallen, while Camilla wiped her eyes as actor Martin Freeman read a moving diary entry from a survivor who noted ‘it’s because of the boys [who died] that I am here today’.
