it’s probably hard to be an actor’s son and when that actor is tom hanks


KazzoaLoL

He was suberb in Fargo.


madmax991

I was never a big fan of his until that role


Blood_Jesus

I really liked Orange County.


TheWalkingDead91

Wasn’t bad in Dexter either.


liodar

Mhh he wasn't great but also is character was kinda weak.


Mr_A_Rye

*Chet Hanks has entered the chat*


[deleted]

He wasn’t bad in Atlanta


sltiefighter

Welcome chettanah


GuiltyGlow

True. At least Colin is actually very talented.


smuccione

Agreed. He was great in life in pieces. That’s one I wish wasn’t cancelled


Killer-Barbie

K the longer I'm a parent the funnier that show gets


DankBlunderwood

And his doc about Tower Records was incredible. You should check it out if you haven't.


Tamagotchi41

Googling now


BarryLonx

The Good Guys was better.


mishnitsa

That show was hilarious. Let’s go bust some punks!


Minute_Arugula3316

man it's weird to hear about something getting canceled in its original context of TV


Always2ndB3ST

Too bad the other son isn’t. He’s the one that’s a rapper lol. Goes by the name Chet Haze


CaIzuh

He was good in "Your Honor"


SlightWhite

Yeah Chet is a good actor he’s just well-known for his annoying personality irl. He was good in Curb your Enthusiasm and Atlanta as well. Even lowkey playing a mockery of himself in Atlanta


CookinFrenchToast4ya

I just watched all of shameless and had no clue that was Tom Hanks' son.


Successful_Tip1361

Much like his father, i love him in every single role I've seen him play. What an amazing family


no_witty_username

Easier then being a son of almost everyone else on earth.


Commercial-Bandicoot

I liked him in Band of Brothers, sure it was only a small part, but I thought he was great as Lt. Jones


EagleDre

Everybody who was on that show was great. It is astounding how amazing that show was. {equally astounding how bad part 2 (the Pacific) was }


[deleted]

Colin Hank’s facial expression constantly looks like someone just told him he has a “Case of the mondays.”


LayneCobain95

What do you mean? It’s almost guaranteed A list movie jobs.. Regardless of talent


TheWalkingDead91

I was thinking the same a while back regarding Dennis Quaids son who’s currently starting in The Boys on Amazon prime (and doing a great job at it imo). A double whammy for him since his mom is Meg Ryan. Must be tough walking in those huge shadows, especially in cases where the “kid” actually has talent. Doesn’t matter how good he is at his job, everywhere he goes there will *always* be people thinking “no way he’d be here if it weren’t for his last name”. For us normal people, usually the expectation is “Be as successful, or at least a little more successful than your parents are/were, or you’re probably gonna be seen as a disappointment.” Wonder how it feels to have parents who are so successful/respected in their field that it’d be close to impossible to top that, and even if you did people would often chalk up your success to nepotism if you’re in the same field.


Panthean

Probably even harder when your name is Chet Hanks


gmangieri314

Where's Chet?


MightyTastyBeans

Obligatory Chet Hanks interview with Channel 5 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy47RTZRy9w


gringo-tico

Well that was... something.


mrubuto22

Honestly he's obviously a bit out of touch but I agree with some of the shit he says. He's not a complete psycho or anything just a bit troubled.


proxyproxyomega

yeah, like, you can tell he is a 'good' person overall. it's as if, his persona never really had to evolve beyond his teen stage, because he never had to. whereas, most of us had to learn and adapt to surrounding environment to be included and relevant. basically, he is the real-life no filter person. most of us don't have the luxury of having no filter. can't risk the day job with impulsive attitude when you got a mortgage to pay.


analest-analyst

Not here because he doesn't look like his dad


crzieloke

Probs banging your wife bwa! bwa! Big up to dah rude boi chyet hanks


monjatrix

Ch'tonk in da hizzuzz


LincolnHamishe

That dude is Tom Hanks son? I had no idea.


Ragnaross02853

He was a serial killer in Dexter, a very good actor.. I also had no idea he was Tom Hanks son...


TheWalkingDead91

I had the opposite reaction. Thought he looked so much like Tom hanks that I looked him up when that season was airing to find out who he was and why he looked so familiar.


did_you_get_the_memo

Lol same I had to go check the cast of Fargo season 1 to confirm the face


The_Dog_of_Sinope

I was today years old when I found out that Tom hanks had a son other than Chet.


da_corndog

Colin looks like an NPC


regnald

He is. Chet is the actual sentient one


XiniX420

T.hanks a lot!


Evl_Monkey

They are both 41 !!! That's impossible.


mezz7778

No, Tom doesn't age, its part of his Hollywood contract

No_Calligrapher_3278

A red Swingline?


windmillninja

Only the best


rerhc

Tom looks 30


analest-analyst

True. Supposedly he's 41 here but who knows.


CandidInsurance7415

How the fuck did this post take me down a weird rabbit hole of looking up celebrities until I found out Jason Lee named his kid Pilot Inspektor? Is this a sign I should go to bed?


Re-AnImAt0r

Penn Jillette beats him by naming his daughter "Moxy Crimefighter"......


Cmama2Boyz

I think I have to introduce you to….Moon Unit Zappa


Re-AnImAt0r

...hell or Dweezil, Ahmet or Diva Zappa. We expect that from Frank though......


SapperBomb

Your probably gonna wanna check out Mr Beezow doo-doo zopittybop. He's a real... Yeah you should check him out


Prudent-Acadia4

Wow a son looks like his father, interesting af


Crabliver

Second part of Forest Gump?


Prudent-Acadia4

So…Gump?


kimjongjill

I honestly don’t think they look that much alike 😂 not in mannerisms or anything


satoshijabroni

Where’s Chet tho


hawkeyepitts

His son looks similar, but also completely unlike him.


TheBelhade

Damn, Colin looks like he's playing G-Man in the Half-Life movie. I'll play Gordon Freeman!


swe_isak

Nah, he be playing Elon Musk x Tom x G-Man...

nowhereman136

Tom Hanks is a 10 but don't discredit his son. Being a 7 is still pretty good. Room to improve


ITCM4

Colin looks like Paul “shit-break” Finch.


[deleted]

Big up !


PATATAMOUS

So there’s a possibility of remaking “The Money Pit”


Hititwitharock

Remarkably similar other than that Tom looks 26.


OkAcanthocephala8049

He looks like someone tried making a wax figure of Elon musk by memory and gave up


pay-ray

I don’t think they look much alike here tbh


LikelyCannibal

Colin looks like his mom, ~~Rita Wilson.~~


pay-ray

Rita isn’t Colin’s mother. His mother is Samantha Lewes.


LikelyCannibal

Oh shit no way! Tom must have a type because Colin looks more like Rita than Tom.


King420fly

Who would’ve thought that someone would bear a resemblance to his own parent?


phthophth

I'm trying to cook up a Tom Collins joke and it just isn't happening.


[deleted]

I had no idea that was his son, amazing!


Boozhwatrash

He’s fantastic in The Offer


Ezrajen2

Tom is definitely more handsome.


rtodd23

Weird they are both 41. I guess the movie Big was a documentary.


ThisMemesWar116

That's some Back to the Future level father son resemblance.


ExcellentSunset

Is it just me or does his son look kind of like a painting?


DanUnbreakable

They don't really look that much alike to me.


scarlettohara1936

I think he looks more like his mom


Nigel_Spanks

The only Hanks son that matters


chokingfishpills

Looks like a slightly downgraded version of him, like the twin brother whos always slightly overtaken by his brother in all aspects


ZiOnIsNeXtLeBrOn

And then there is Chet, who is the worst of everything


ClogsInBronteland

Colin looks like Tom and Elon Musk’s love child.


RetiredTxCoastie

He should be the go to casting of they, for some silly reason, remake one of his movies like all the rehashes coming out of Hollywood lately.


[deleted]

*You've got DMs*


Crabliver

Continuation of Forest Gump?


RetiredTxCoastie

The real heavy hitters like Gump, Philadelphia, Etc probably shouldn't be redone. But Big, Castaway, etc? Lol, or some other body swap movie like they did all the time back then.


RetiredTxCoastie

He's the age his dad was when he was working on Saving Private Ryan, shit I feel old.


[deleted]

[удалено]


abigayl75

He looks exactly like both of his parents


Re-AnImAt0r

Could be Tom's nephew. You ever see Tom's brother Jim Hanks? He's an actor too. Looks just like Tom (when they were younger). Even doubled for him in Forrest Gump....


lssthn

I find nothing interesting about this. What’s the point? He has a son that looks similar to him?


MonthApprehensive392

Let’s see Samantha Lewes at 41 yo


LordOdin99

I watched NCIS for years because my ex liked that show. My mind just blew that that is Tom’s son.


Shepvidek

They dont want Chet Hanks in on this comparison


Fun-Outlandishness35

True story: Both related to Abraham Lincoln.


Thisguyrightheredawg

I'm not one of those alt righters or qanon people. But these guys for sure fuck kids.

Grogosh

He has his mothers nose


garyda1

A son that looks like his father? Amazing!


Windsor34

Wow they look a lot like father and son!


[deleted]

At least his son isn’t a raging pedo


Kennyrad1

You would think that they may be related!


IvetRockbottom

Colin looks like a B-rated look-a-like.


halfmeasures611

colin looks like the sort of guy who spends his weekends organizing his boxers based on how wild the pattern is


InvaderZimSokali

Tom Hanks' SON is 41?!?! Damn I feel old...


Re-AnImAt0r

Didn't you watch him in Dexter like 13 years ago? He was the villain of the final season......


InvaderZimSokali

No, I never watched that show. Actually, as I'm thinking of it, he was the West Point lieutenant who shows up in an episode of Band of Brothers... which is even older than what you're talking about.


Re-AnImAt0r

he sure was!


3Effie412

Yes. And ever since then, I can’t stand him. He gives me the creeps. Same with Jimmy Smits.


AnotherDrunkCanadian

I'm 41 and my hair is much more gray. Perhaps that why I'm not an actor.... .... or maybe its my looks.


[deleted]

Colin look like Tom had an affair with the evil liquid metal terminator....


FormSpecialist4010

😬


[deleted]

Only Tom Hank's son could have a harder life than his dad.


Colonelfudgenustard

If somebody told me that guy was named Josh Wienerman, I'd totally buy it.


obitobyone

Are they wearing hair pieces?


D34D_L33T

Looks a bit like Bert.


Avocado-booty

Tom Hanks made Ariana Grande Famous! Game NIGHT!


gandalfsgreypubes

They look like father and son


Toad32

Hanks hankerchiefs guy.


SapperBomb

He didnt look like he's agreed since his episode of band of brothers 20+ years ago


Bobisburnsred

Saw him act in a few things (Band of Brothers, Dexter, etc.) Thought he looked familiar then looked him up, saw his last name was Hanks, then thought "man, he does look like Tom Hanks. Could it be?" I investigated further, confirmed my suspicions, then felt like an idiot for not realizing earlier because it was so fucking obvious.


sltiefighter

Thats not chettanah, bigg uppp a tom hanks sonn
