Tom Hanks Says He and Forrest Gump Costar Robin Wright 'Picked Up Right Where We Left Off' When Reuniting for New Film


Tom Hanks is reflecting on how he and Robin Wright were immediately able to reconnect on set, 30 years after the release of 'Forrest Gump.' The pair are reuniting with director Robert Zemeckis for the new film 'Here.'

Speaking on the red carpet of the movie's world premiereat AFI Fest in Los Angeles on Friday, Oct. 25, Hanks, 68, opened up about what it was like to once again work with his Forrest Gump costar — along with director Robert Zemeckis — 30 years after the film's 1994 release. Hanks has been candid about how he and Wright immediately clicked when they came back together for Here, years after shooting Forrest Gump, in which the pair played childhood friends who marry by the end of the movie. The film, which also stars Paul Bettany, Kelly Reilly and Michelle Dockery, is a "tale of love, loss, laughter and life, all of which happen right Here," the synopsis adds.
