It’s not the first time fans have expressed concern about the Hollywood leading man’s shaking hands.
In June 2022, he appeared unable to control his shaking right hand as he held a microphone and spoke while promoting Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis movie.
Hanks tried to control the shaking by placing his left hand on the bottom of the microphone, below his right. It also briefly changed hands.

The Friends star appeared on a recent episode of Dax Shepard’s Armchair Expert podcast and criticized Hank and director Robert Zemeckis’ film.
“They filmed it and they were able to film the scene and then watch the playback of them when they were younger, and it was ready for them to see,” he explained on the podcast.
‘And all I got from that was this is an endorsement for AI and, oh my God. It’s not like, “Oh, it’s going to ruin everything,” but what will be left? Forget actors, what about up-and-coming actors? They will limit themselves to granting licenses and recycling,” he argued.
Kudrow continued: ‘Putting that aside completely, what work will there be for human beings? So what?
‘Will there be some kind of subsistence stipend for people and they won’t have to work? How can it be enough?
