It’s Hanks teaming up with more Hollywood heavyweights in late director Mike Nichols and writer Aaron Sorkin for this biopic as the famed United State Congressman. Hanks has fun with his role as the care-free politician. Even with fellow big names like Julia Roberts, the late Philip Seymour Hoffman and Amy Adams in the mix, Hanks was the star who shined the brightest and earned a Golden Globe nomination.
