FameCrawler : Tom Hanks

Sneak Peek: Toy Story 3 Trailer!

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 29 May 2009 21:45:00 GMT

Trying to find a movie to accommodate the tastes of my tween and teen daughters usually sends my husband and I running screaming from the room. It's hard when one of them wants to see a flick about ponies and unicorns, and the other wants to see a movie with lots of teens getting knocked-up. But any of the movies in the Toy Story franchise always get an enthusiastic thumbs-up from both camps, so I was pretty excited to find this sneak peek trailer of the upcoming Toy Story 3!

So what if it's short and grainy and looks like it was filmed off of someone's TV in their living room? It's Woody and Buzz Lightyear, people!

To infinity and beyond!

Where in the World is David Moscow?

Whit Honea — Fri, 15 May 2009 17:33:00 GMT

Remember Big? Of course you do.

Perhaps you've found yourself wondering whatever happened to that kid that played Tom Hanks in child form? Where is David Moscow? That's the kid.

Strollerderby knows, and they'll tell you all about it. They're like that.

Paul Newman Dead at 83

Karl Erikson — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 16:03:00 GMT

Hollywood legend Paul Newman died of cancer last night in his home. The actor was 83 years old. Starring in many Hollywood blockbusters like "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof," "The Hustler," "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," and "The Sting," Newman was also a big fan of car racing and a major philanthropist.

In the 80s, Newman started Newman's Own, a food company. All profits from the company went to charities such as his Hole in the Wall Gang camp. To date, the company has given away more than $200 million. Newman established the camp to benefit gravely ill children.

He has been married to actress Joanne Woodward for 50 years and leaves behind Joanne and four children. A fifth child, son Scott, died in 1978 from an accidental drug overdose.

Rock on, Paul. Loved everything you were in.

Who are the Most Generous Stars?

Bollywood Goes Hollywood

Whit Honea — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 22:32:00 GMT

First blood will be drawn by Slyvester Stallone (with special guest star the Governator) in the new wave of Bollywood movies to be filmed in the U.S. using American actors.

"The two will appear alongside the Bollywood stars Ashkay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor in Incredible Love, the story of an Indian stuntman who takes Hollywood by storm but cannot find true love there." You know, like everyone else who looks for true love in Hollywood. However, fake love can be purchased by the hour on almost every corner, so there's that.

The two ~~old guys~~ celebrity dads won't be the only big names jumping on the Bollywagon (I just coined that, right now. Yes, I'm that good.) Some of FameCrawler's favorites will also be getting into the act, so to speak, namely Tom Hanks, George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Nicolas Cage. What, no moms?

Helen Hunt In A Bikini - Who Knew She Was Hot?!

Sassy Smith — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 17:39:00 GMT

Actress Helen Hunt, 44, and her daughter Makena, 4, get to splash around for a day of fun and sunshine in Hawaii. Who knew that Helen could rock a bikini like that? She looks awesome and her little girl is adorable!

More fun bikini pics after the jump!

I sure wish I was in Hawaii, splashing around on a beach. Oh the life!

Sassy Smith — Sun, 09 Mar 2008 18:01:00 GMT

Madonna will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on March 10 - and Justin Timberlake will be doing the honors!

Justin has also been working on Madge's upcoming album, Hard Candy which is set to drop April 29. Although Madonna is on the honor list, she will not be performing although almost every other inductee over the last 20 years, has.

Instead, the Material Girl has chosen Iggy Pop to "serenade" her with her hits. Her rep had no comment on why she decided not to perform.

Other inductees include, Leonard Cohen, John Mellencamp, The Dave Clark Five, The Ventures and Little Walter.

Before They Were Mama and Dada

Karen — Tue, 01 Jan 2008 17:04:00 GMT

I came upon these pictures of celebrities long before becoming Mommy and Daddy...before marriages, divorces, custody battles and the crazy world of celebrity took over. Some of them were super cute! Enjoy!

Separated at Birth: Sheryl Crow and Rita Wilson

Whit Honea — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 00:07:00 GMT

Seriously, I can't tell where the Rita Wilson ends and the Sheryl Crow begins. The hair, the glasses, the smiles, the plunging neckline. I think Tom Hanks can play this to his advantage- whatever that means.

Does anyone else see it?

The Unveiling Of Julia Robert's Son!

Sassy Smith — Sat, 17 Nov 2007 19:04:00 GMT

Julia Roberts will be on Oprah Monday and she will be "unveiling" her newest son, 5 month old, Henry Daniel Moder. I'm not sure I'd refer to it as unveiling my child, like he's some sort of art piece, but whatever floats her Pretty Woman boat.

Roberts said to Winfrey on the taping of the show, "There's been a lot of curiosity. There's not been a picture of him. I thought I would just show everybody." Julia is joining Tom Hanks to promote their new movie, Charlie Wilson's War.

Malibu Fire: Don't Worry - Britney Is Safe!

sweatpantsmom — Sun, 21 Oct 2007 21:40:00 GMT

In spite of the fact that the Malibu fire has destroyed several structures, caused many evacuations and continues to burn out of control, we can all breathe easy - Britney Spears is not in danger! TMZ is reporting that the fire is still a fair distance from Spears' home and that she hasn't been evacuated. Put out that cigarette, Britney!

The situation looks a little more dire for some other celebrities who own homes in the area - Olivia Newton John and James Cameron have already been evacuated. Other celebs who live in the vicinity of Carbon Beach, one of the areas in danger, are Jennifer Aniston, Sting, Bill Murray, Nick Nolte, Robin Wright Penn, Mel Brooks, Howie Mandel, Tatum O'Neal, Rob Reiner, Goldie Hawn, Linda Ronstadt, Jeff Bridges, David Arquette and Courteney Cox, David Geffen, Jeffrey Katzenberg, and Tom Hanks.

Tom Hanks and Sons Don't Cry in Baseball

Whit Honea — Mon, 23 Jul 2007 13:26:00 GMT

Tom Hanks and two of his sons (not the guys in the front row) took in a Mets and Dodgers game over the weekend. Funny how his boys are rooting for different teams and he doesn't show interest in either one. Nothing worse than brothers divided.

Except, possibly being an Indians fan (like Tom). Hey, they're only one game back. Have some crackerjacks and smile, man.
