The much-loved actor, Tom Hanks, is once again ready to rule the silver screen with his new film. Hanks, a veteran actor since the 1980s, has given some remarkable performances over the years. His new venture ‘Here' is anticipated to add another feather to his cap.
Hanks Goes Back in Time With ‘Here'
The film ‘Here' is an innovative concept extracted from a comic strip turned graphic novel written by Richard McGuire. It's fascinating how the entire movie is shot from a single perspective inside a house over the course of 104 minutes. Hanks is all set to portray Richard while his former Forrest Gump co-star, Robin Wright, will adorn the role of his wife, Margaret.
In an exciting twist, this film has brought together the Forrest Gump trio, Hanks, Wright, and director Robert Zemeckis. The reunion has already created a buzz in Hollywood and among Hanks's fans.
Release of First Look Pictures: Sparking Conversation
The newly-released first look at the movie is causing quite a stir. The film's 1980s to 1990s ambiance confused some fans into drawing parallels with their favorite CBS show, ‘Young Sheldon.' It wasn't just the homely vibes that captured attention, but also something else fans couldn't overlook – the noticeable use of de-aging effects on the actors.
Hanks, who is 67 years old, is required to cover various age spans in the movie. This meant the use of some significant visual effects on the actors. Fans were quick to point out the alteration, which led to diverse reactions.
Fans Express Mixed Emotions Over De-aging Technique
While the heavy usage of de-aging effects excited some, it also raised eyebrows for others. Some fans believed the film would be successful, considering Hanks, Wright, and Zemeckis's previous work. However, some expressed concern about the usage of heavy digital de-aging.
A few fans playfully suggested that instead of the heavy visual effects, the directors could have just cast Hanks's sons, Chet or Colin Hanks, who bear a strong resemblance to their father. This, they opined, could have helped the movie steer clear of the costly digital effects.
Nonetheless, there is an equal number of fans who believe in Hanks's perdurable magic. They anticipate ‘Here' to be another testament to Hanks's unmatched acting prowess, if the visual effects are done right.
Waiting For The Silver Screen Magic
The divergent opinions have only been triggered by the first look. Fans and patrons of Hanks will have to wait until the release to decide whether ‘Here' lives up to the expectations set by the actor's previous works.
Even though the debates rage on, one thing remains clear – anything featuring Hanks is bound to stir conversation and scores of opinions. Rightfully so, as Hanks's journey in Hollywood, all the way from Toy Story's Woody to Forrest Gump, has earned him a place of honor in the industry.
Mark your calendars for the grand release of ‘Here' on November 15, 2024! Until then, Hanks's fans can only speculate and anticipate the cinematic magic that awaits them in the closest silver screen.
