Tom Hanks, one of the most beloved and well-known actors in Hollywood, recently revealed that he often gets mistaken for another famous actor. Despite his long and successful career in the film industry, fans still approach him thinking he is someone else. During a podcast interview to promote his new movie, Tom shared that he often gets mistaken for Michael Keaton, a fellow actor who has also made a name for himself in Hollywood.
Tom, who is 68 years old, has starred in countless movies over the years, including iconic roles in films such as Forrest Gump, Cast Away, and The Green Mile. Recently, his film A Man Called Otto has been making audiences cry on Netflix. However, despite his fame and recognition, Tom is still mistaken for Michael Keaton by fans who believe they have a striking resemblance.
During the interview, the host of the podcast asked Tom if he had ever been confused for another actor. Without hesitation, Tom replied that he is often mistaken for Michael Keaton. He even joked that they are like "odd doppelgängers" from a long time ago. Fans often approach him and ask if he was in a certain movie, and Tom has gotten used to it by now.
Interestingly, Tom's son Colin Hanks has also played into the similarities between his father and Michael Keaton. In a birthday post for his dad, Colin shared a picture of Michael and wished his dad a happy birthday. Fans in the comments section also joined in on the fun, with some even suggesting that Tom looks like other actors such as Bill Murray and Robert Hein.
It has been rumored that Tom was offered the role of Batman before Michael Keaton in 1989. However, Tom has denied this and even joked that he could never imagine himself in the iconic suit. On the other hand, Michael has admitted that he may have turned down a role in one of Tom's early leading films, Splash.
Despite the mix-ups and rumors, it is clear that both Tom Hanks and Michael Keaton have established themselves as huge names in Hollywood. They may be mistaken for each other by fans, but they have each carved out their own successful careers in the film industry. And in the end, it doesn't really matter who they get mistaken for, as long as they continue to entertain audiences with their incredible talents.
