Well, who wouldn't want to work with Tom Hanks?

I don't really have aspirations to be Tom Hanks.

I don't know what to say about it except Tom Hanks is a great person, a serious person; he's dissatisfied in a very likeable way, in a very discreet way, and Steven Spielberg is similar in his discretion and drive. But Spielberg is calm. He's this driven filmmaker and visionary. He really is.

I played in 'From the Earth to the Moon,' working with Tom Hanks. He is a great guy, very smart.

I don't really have a lot of fun playing just straight good guys. It's not my thing. It's like Tom Hanks territory.

There are a lot of actors that I really love to watch, actors who I have fun watching - I think Johnny Depp is phenomenal. But I wouldn't want that career as much as I'd like a career like Tom Hanks - he kind of represents the everyman.

Tom Hanks, who starred in 'The Da Vinci Code,' turns out to be related to a number of the historic characters that feature in 'The Da Vinci Code,' including William the Conqueror and Shakespeare.

Tom Hanks has been a huge idol of mine. I'd love to work with someone like him someday. You could learn a lot working with someone like that.

Tom Hanks comes with a lot of credibility.

I have met Tom Hanks. Several times. And he's been very nice.
