They’re our favourite rom-com couple. Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, the on-screen duo famous for romantic classics Sleepless in Seattle and You’ve Got Mail, look set to reunite in a new film.

But this time around Meg Ryan’s role will be off-screen, making her directorial debut with an adaptation of William Saroyan's classic 1943 novel The Human Comedy. A Word War II coming-of-age story about life on the home front, Ithaca, will be a far cry from the light-hearted love stories of their previous collaborations.

But if Tom Hanks agrees to play a cameo role in the film, it will be the fourth time the pair have teamed up.

We've pulled together some of our favourite scenes from their previous collaborations.
