2026 has been anything but a quiet year for Tom Hanks , who returned to his iconic role as Woody in the fifth Toy Story movie that’s currently tearing up the box office. Even before this, though, Hanks has been hard at work filming the sequel to Greyhound , his hit Apple TV World War II movie that premiered back in 2020. Greyhound has become one of the biggest streaming hits of the last 10 years on any platform. Hanks is a two-time Oscar winner for his performances in back-to-back years in Forrest Gump and Philadelphia , but he’s been nominated a handful of other times, including as recently as 2020 for his work in A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood . Hanks’ most recent project comes from narrating a World War II series bringing fans through all the most important historical events from the conflict.
