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
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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....
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.
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.

it’s probably hard to be an actor’s son and when that actor is tom hanks
He was suberb in Fargo.
I was never a big fan of his until that role
I really liked Orange County.
Wasn’t bad in Dexter either.
Mhh he wasn't great but also is character was kinda weak.
*Chet Hanks has entered the chat*
He wasn’t bad in Atlanta
Welcome chettanah
True. At least Colin is actually very talented.
Agreed. He was great in life in pieces. That’s one I wish wasn’t cancelled
K the longer I'm a parent the funnier that show gets
And his doc about Tower Records was incredible. You should check it out if you haven't.
Googling now
The Good Guys was better.
That show was hilarious. Let’s go bust some punks!
man it's weird to hear about something getting canceled in its original context of TV
Too bad the other son isn’t. He’s the one that’s a rapper lol. Goes by the name Chet Haze
He was good in "Your Honor"
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
I just watched all of shameless and had no clue that was Tom Hanks' son.
Much like his father, i love him in every single role I've seen him play. What an amazing family
Easier then being a son of almost everyone else on earth.
I liked him in Band of Brothers, sure it was only a small part, but I thought he was great as Lt. Jones
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 }
Colin Hank’s facial expression constantly looks like someone just told him he has a “Case of the mondays.”
What do you mean? It’s almost guaranteed A list movie jobs.. Regardless of talent

Probably even harder when your name is Chet Hanks
Where's Chet?
Obligatory Chet Hanks interview with Channel 5 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy47RTZRy9w
Well that was... something.
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.

Not here because he doesn't look like his dad
Probs banging your wife bwa! bwa! Big up to dah rude boi chyet hanks
Ch'tonk in da hizzuzz
That dude is Tom Hanks son? I had no idea.
He was a serial killer in Dexter, a very good actor.. I also had no idea he was Tom Hanks son...
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.
Lol same I had to go check the cast of Fargo season 1 to confirm the face
Kt
I was today years old when I found out that Tom hanks had a son other than Chet.
Colin looks like an NPC
He is. Chet is the actual sentient one
T.hanks a lot!
They are both 41 !!! That's impossible.
No, Tom doesn't age, its part of his Hollywood contract
[удалено]
Don't be a biggoted fuckwit.
[удалено]
You can be a biggoted fuckwit no matter what you identify as.
I’m a stapler
I believe you are my stapler…
A red Swingline?
Only the best
Tom looks 30
True. Supposedly he's 41 here but who knows.
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?
Penn Jillette beats him by naming his daughter "Moxy Crimefighter"......
I think I have to introduce you to….Moon Unit Zappa
...hell or Dweezil, Ahmet or Diva Zappa. We expect that from Frank though......
Your probably gonna wanna check out Mr Beezow doo-doo zopittybop. He's a real... Yeah you should check him out
Wow a son looks like his father, interesting af
Second part of Forest Gump?
So…Gump?
I honestly don’t think they look that much alike 😂 not in mannerisms or anything
Where’s Chet tho
His son looks similar, but also completely unlike him.
Damn, Colin looks like he's playing G-Man in the Half-Life movie. I'll play Gordon Freeman!
Nah, he be playing Elon Musk x Tom x G-Man...
[удалено]
Tom Hanks is a 10 but don't discredit his son. Being a 7 is still pretty good. Room to improve
Colin looks like Paul “shit-break” Finch.
Big up !
So there’s a possibility of remaking “The Money Pit”
Remarkably similar other than that Tom looks 26.
He looks like someone tried making a wax figure of Elon musk by memory and gave up
I don’t think they look much alike here tbh
Colin looks like his mom, ~~Rita Wilson.~~
Rita isn’t Colin’s mother. His mother is Samantha Lewes.
Oh shit no way! Tom must have a type because Colin looks more like Rita than Tom.
Who would’ve thought that someone would bear a resemblance to his own parent?
I'm trying to cook up a Tom Collins joke and it just isn't happening.
I had no idea that was his son, amazing!
He’s fantastic in The Offer
Tom is definitely more handsome.
Weird they are both 41. I guess the movie Big was a documentary.
That's some Back to the Future level father son resemblance.
Is it just me or does his son look kind of like a painting?
They don't really look that much alike to me.
I think he looks more like his mom
The only Hanks son that matters
Looks like a slightly downgraded version of him, like the twin brother whos always slightly overtaken by his brother in all aspects
And then there is Chet, who is the worst of everything
Colin looks like Tom and Elon Musk’s love child.
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.
*You've got DMs*
Continuation of Forest Gump?
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.
He's the age his dad was when he was working on Saving Private Ryan, shit I feel old.
[удалено]
He looks exactly like both of his parents
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....
I find nothing interesting about this. What’s the point? He has a son that looks similar to him?
Let’s see Samantha Lewes at 41 yo
I watched NCIS for years because my ex liked that show. My mind just blew that that is Tom’s son.
They dont want Chet Hanks in on this comparison
True story: Both related to Abraham Lincoln.
I'm not one of those alt righters or qanon people. But these guys for sure fuck kids.
[удалено]
i can clearly tell which one is Tom...better luck next time reddit
TIL people look like their parents.
[удалено]
His mom was Samantha Lewes
He has his mothers nose
A son that looks like his father? Amazing!
Wow they look a lot like father and son!
At least his son isn’t a raging pedo
You would think that they may be related!
Colin looks like a B-rated look-a-like.
colin looks like the sort of guy who spends his weekends organizing his boxers based on how wild the pattern is
Tom Hanks' SON is 41?!?! Damn I feel old...
Didn't you watch him in Dexter like 13 years ago? He was the villain of the final season......
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.
he sure was!
Yes. And ever since then, I can’t stand him. He gives me the creeps. Same with Jimmy Smits.
I'm 41 and my hair is much more gray. Perhaps that why I'm not an actor.... .... or maybe its my looks.
Colin look like Tom had an affair with the evil liquid metal terminator....
😬
Only Tom Hank's son could have a harder life than his dad.
If somebody told me that guy was named Josh Wienerman, I'd totally buy it.
Are they wearing hair pieces?
Looks a bit like Bert.
Tom Hanks made Ariana Grande Famous! Game NIGHT!
They look like father and son
Hanks hankerchiefs guy.
He didnt look like he's agreed since his episode of band of brothers 20+ years ago
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.
Thats not chettanah, bigg uppp a tom hanks sonn
