Fears for Tom Hanks' health as Hollywood megastar appears unable to control his shaking right hand while holding a microphone and speaking to the crowd as he promotes Baz Luhrmann's new Elvis movie

Tom Hanks sparked concern among his fans earlier this month, as he appeared to be struggling to contain the shaking of his arm.

The 65-year-old is in the midst of a promotional whirlwind for Baz Luhrmann's biopic of Elvis, in which Hanks stars as the singer's manager.

Luhrmann, who was born in Sydney, arranged for an Australian premier to be held in the city of Gold Coast, 50 miles south of Brisbane, where the filming took place.

Austin Butler, 30, who stars as The King, was at the June 4 event, along with Hanks.

'There is no better place in the world to make a motion picture than right here on the Gold Coast,' he said, microphone in his right hand, and left hand in his pocket.

this is an interesting comment. I thought slamming those movies he was in was weird

“DSingleman, Encino, United States, 2 minutes ago

Illness could explain the mea culpa a few days ago about making the Dan Brown movies...”

Didn't Hanks' character in Saving Private Ryan suffer from a shaking right hand due to PTSD or something? Not funny. Hate to see this happen to anyone.

Hanks is pretty good....I've seen him in a couple of things I've liked.But if he were to drop dead tomorrow I'd lose two,or maybe three,seconds of sleep....same as with 99.99% of the rest of showbiz stars.

I'm not an Elvis fan, but I can't wait to see this movie. Getting some good reviews like Bohemian Rhapsody did.

I do like a couple of Elvis songs though, "A little less conversation" is a jam!

He was one of the first ones dealing with COVID when in Australia.

Yes,he did. Although I was never ordered anywhere near combat I can easily imagine shaking a bit...or perhaps,soiling my underwear a lot...if I was ever in his situation.

I was about to mention his hand shaking in ‘Saving Private Ryan’. Yes, due to PTSD on D Day, I think.

So is his accent a good rendition of Parker?

Lisa Marie looks bad. For being so rich she has led a difficult life.

It is interesting how far he has come from that TV show. There is a clip where he was exposing himself to the crew during that show. But of course...everyone skips over that in this cancel culture.

I haven't seen any of the trailers, just going off of reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and other outlets.

Absolutely. I, by no means, meant to belittle the tremors. I don't think any of us has even the tiniest concept of the horror of that day.

Fairly subtle, bordering on click bait.

Hanks did a Celebrity Jeopardy skit on SNL where he wears a red hat and shyts on conservatives. Too bad for him.

He was good in Joe vs The Volcano, but like so many Hollywood baby-killers just can’t keep his yap shut.

Her adult son just killed himself a few months ago. She’s been locked in a vicious custody battle with her ex over their twin girls for a couple of years. And she quit Scientology a couple of years ago, so her life hasn’t been easy lately. 😢
