Whenever the debate of method acting takes place, the names like Marlon Brando, Robert De Niro, Tom Hanks and Christian Bale never skip our minds. We have seen these legends going to any extent for getting under the skin of the character. Our today’s piece too is dedicated to one of the aforementioned actors of Hollywood.
Today, here we’ll be talking about Hanks’ efforts behind 2000 release, Cast Away. The spine chilling survival drama was well appreciated by critics as well as the ticket paying audience. The actor was even nominated in the Best Actor in a Leading Role at 73rd Academy Awards. But for that pat on the back, Hanks had to give it all.
