'WE'RE ALL GROWN-UPS HERE': Legendary actor tomhanks shreds cancel culture and explains why it's wrong to edit classic books to fit modern times.

Tom Hanks says he's"against reading any book from any era that says ‘abridged due to modern sensitivities.'"

Hanks also got candid about how he relates to his upcoming novel. The book is about the production of a Hollywood superhero movie. "I have pulled every single one of those moments of behavior myself on a set. Not everybody is at their best every single day on a motion picture set," Hanks told the outlet."I’ve had tough days trying to be a professional when my life has been falling apart in more ways than one and the requirement for me that day is to be funny, charming and loving – and it’s the last way I feel.

Tom Hanks boasts a long list of credits, including movies"Forrest Gump,""Castaway" and most recently"Elvis.""Movie-making is very hard work over a very long period of time that consists of so many moments of joy slapped up against an equal number of feelings of self-loathing," the actor told People magazine."It is the greatest job in the world and the most confounding of labors that I know of.

"I hope the book captures as much of 'the accidental judgments and casual slaughter' that go into a motion pictures dictum to hold 'a mirror up to nature' that I have witnessed since I joined the Screen Actors Guild."
