Tom Hanks continues to be the best. The Oscar-winning actor and all-around stand-up guy sent a typewriter to an Australian boy named Corona, who was being bullied during the coronavirus pandemic because of his name.
Tom Hanks walks onstage during the 92nd Oscars at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, California on February 9, 2020. The typewriter aficionado sent one to an Australian boy bullied over his name, Corona.According to Reuters, Hanks received a heartfelt letter from 8-year-old Corona De Vries, who lives on the Gold Coast in Queensland, following the news that he and his wife, Rita Wilson, were diagnosed with coronavirus.
De Vries also explained that while he loved his unique name, he was being bullied at school. Corona was"sad and angry" about people calling him"the coronavirus." Hanks, who is known to be a typewriter collector, wrote back to the boy on a Corona typewriter which he had taken to the Gold Coast."Your letter made my wife and I feel so wonderful!" the actor gushed."You know, you are the only person I've ever known to have the name Corona — like the ring around the sun, a crown."And because he's a treasure, Hanks further surprised Corona by sending him the namesake typewriter.
Tom Hanks has the audacity to go around living his life while millions of gullible idiots are convinced he's in prison at Guantanamo Bay.
Such a thoughtful sweet thing to do and his letter back to Corona was great.
Corona typewriter? Cool!
A type writer is what all the cool kids have. Problem solved
