"Inferno" main star Tom Hanks has been on the industry for a long time and there is no denying the actor's charisma and talent. But what's amazing from Tom Hanks is that he still remembers details from iconic roles he did before.
Youtube personalities and filmmakers Wesley Chan and Phillip Wang from Wong Fu Productions met actor Tom Hanks and director Ron Howard for the premiere of the movie, "Inferno." They went to Florence, Italy, to meet the director and the star of the movie.
The Youtube stars asked a few questions about "Inferno" which Tom Hanks and Ron Howard gladly answered. Before the Q&A session ends, a rather starstrucked Phillip Wang asked Tom Hanks to recite the rap from "Big" with him.
The "Inferno" star was more than happy to do so. Tom Hanks still knows every letter and tune by heart and performed the rap "Shimmy Shimmy Cocoa Pop" with the Youtube personality.
Tom Hanks recited the full rap from his movie. But get this, "Big" came out 28 years ago. It had been a long time but Tom Hanks did not skip a bit and still sang the rap with much enthusiasm as he did in the movie.
The Youtube video was uploaded on Wesley Chan and Phillip Wang's Youtube Channe, Wong Fu Productions.
It may not come as a surprise that Tom Hanks still knows his rap from "Big" even nearly 3 decades have past. His passion for his movies are not new. In fact, Tom Hanks is no stranger to nostalgia even as reported by E! News.
They caught up with him and his former co-star Meg Ryan. This was from earlier this year as they attended the "Ithaca" premiere. The movie "Ithaca" was Tom Hanks' directorial debut.
Meg Ryan, who had been friends with Tom Hanks for a long time, can't help but gush about the actor. She said he was good and sweet and even with a little part in a movie, still "hits it out f the park."
Meanwhile, "Inferno" is a movie adaptation of Dan Brown's bestelling novel of the same name. This follows Robert Langdon from his Robert Langdon series.
Tom Hanks reprises his role as Robert Langdon, a Harvard professor and symbologist who was tasked to save the world. He stars in the movie alongside actress Felicity Jones as Sienna Brooks.
"Inferno" is directed by Ron Howard.
