Tom Hanks's stellar career has charted the highs and lows of Hollywood, and he thinks he might have worked out the reason behind a rising trend. The Forrest Gump star shared his insight into superhero fatigue as part of a new interview, and it's all down to technical advances.
Hanks told the Happy Sad Confused podcast that for many years in early superhero adaptations, the "technology did not exist to make it look like it did in the comic books". Whereas now, it does, which means "we are now enjoying the luxury of riches and because you can make anything happen on screen now, we are being brought back to the concept of 'ok that's true, but what is the story?'"
