‘Good To Look Young Again’: Tom Hanks On Digitally De-Aging Himself For His New Movie Here- DEETS

by

As a dedicated admirer of Tom Hanks‘ illustrious career spanning over four decades, I find myself both intrigued and amused by his recent revelations about the digital de-aging process in his upcoming film, Here.

Tom Hanks finds it intriguing to appear younger in movies, yet he considers the digital de-aging process as a bit peculiar or unusual for him. During the AFI Fest premiere in Los Angeles on October 25th, Hanks, who underwent digital enhancement for his upcoming film “Here”, discussed this topic with PEOPLE on the red carpet. He expressed that it’s nice to look young again, but clarified that he doesn’t necessarily enjoy feeling young again.

As a lifestyle expert, let me share my excitement about the upcoming cinematic venture starring two-time Academy Award winner Tom Hanks. Collaborating once again with Forrest Gump’s director Robert Zemeckis and co-star Robin Wright, this film is titled “Here.” In this compelling tale, Tom and Robin portray Richard and Margaret Young across different life stages, delving into their personal lives.

Makeup can conceal to a certain degree, but using “this advanced digital filter” made the transformation immediate. There was no need for post-production delays; they could see themselves appear younger right on screen. This aspect added an exciting element to the filmmaking journey, but the most demanding—in terms of both physical and emotional effort—was shooting the aged versions of Richard and Margaret.

As the initial stages of aging set in, when rising from a sofa becomes more challenging, and you’re not quite at the point where life moves at a snail’s pace yet, this is what Tom Hanks found himself preferring: being as old as he currently is.

The movie is based on Richard McGuire’s comic book and is being directed by Zemeckis. In a January 2023 announcement, the director discussed the film, emphasizing the involvement of Metaphysic, a well-known digital effects company known for its popular @DeepTomCruise social media accounts.

As a devoted admirer, I can’t help but express my appreciation for the actors’ commendable work. They managed to seamlessly transform into their youthful counterparts, and Metaphysics’ AI tools accomplish just that, in ways that once seemed unimaginable!
