Many people know him as a talented actor, but not everyone knows that the star of the film “Forrest Gump” has
4 children. Of all the children, Tom Hanks’ eldest son is especially similar to his father. He also became an actor and has already managed to star in many famous films.
And the most interesting thing is that the eldest son is an exact copy of Hanks – the same facial features, look, charisma. Just look at how he looks.
Films such as Forrest Gump,The Green Mile ,Saving Private Ryan and many others made Tom Hanks a true legend of world cinema.
His characters are always humane, touching and close to the viewer. Thanks to his talent, charm and genuine sincerity on camera, Tom has become an actor that two generations have grown up with.
But few people know that the actor has four children, and all of them are somehow connected with the acting profession. However, only one has achieved real recognition in the profession –Colin Hanks, Tom’s eldest son from his first marriage to actress Samantha Lewis.
Colin followed in his father’s footsteps and managed to build his own career without hiding in the shadow of his famous family name. He began acting in the late 1990s and gradually established himself as a talented and versatile actor.
He can be seen in films such as King Kong (2005),11:14 , and The House of Madness, as well as successful television series such as Fargo,Goodfellas,The City of Aliens, and The Proposal (where he played the producer of The Godfather). Colin is often noted not only for his acting talent, but also for his incredible physical resemblance to his father.
Many fans admit that when they look at Colin, they are transported back to the time when Tom Hanks was just starting his career – the same facial features, look, charisma and good nature.
Despite his famous last name, Colin always tried to follow his own path. In one interview, he said that being Tom Hanks’ son was both a blessing and a challenge, because expectations of him were always high.
Nevertheless, Colin managed to prove that he is an independent actor, deserving respect and attention not only as “someone’s son”, but also as a bright personality in the world of cinema and television.
