Tom Hanks, who is 63, revealed in an Instagram post that while in Australia he and his wife had cold-like symptoms and were tested positive for coronavirus.

“To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the Coronavirus, and were found to be positive,” Hanks wrote.

Hanks wrote he and Wilson, “will be tested, observed, and isolated for as long as public health and safety requires.”

“Not much more to it than a one-day-at-a-time approach, no?” Hanks wrote.

Tom Hanks is a two-time Oscar winner and was in Australia for pre-production on an upcoming Elvis Presley movie, according to Deadline.
