Tom Hanks as Abe Lincoln?

Quote:Hanks in Spielberg's Abraham Lincoln Biopic!?

We'll have to see if this one gets confirmed or not, as it's definitely a rumor for now. According to scooper 'dark_knight', a local TV program announced today that Tom Hanks will team-up with Steven Spielberg to do the life story of Abraham Lincoln.

Gladiator co-writer John Logan scripted the biopic of Lincoln for DreamWorks partner Steven Spielberg to direct. The project focuses on how the 16th U.S. president steered the country through the Civil War.

'Stax' also tells us that Tom Hanks is a descendant of Nancy Hanks, mother of Abe Lincoln!

Hanks is a great character actor but I think this maybe a role he can't pull off. I know speilberg thinks the world of him as an actor but hanks as lincoln? I can't even picture him pulling off the look. Naturally a Lincoln Bio done by Speilberg sounds like an awesome movie though.

it sounds like an awful idea!! speilberg will over sentimentalize the whole story, bury facts like lincoln not really wanting to free the slaves, or his wifes insanity, and turn the whole thing into one big pablumesque mess. Speilberg sucks!!
I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.

That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you.

Like that would be a bad thing, it would be a great heel turn for abe. Maybe Lincoln is the one who put Shawn Michales head through the car window.
