There's a reason Tom Hanks isn't often landing the role of the bad guy in movies -- he doesn't think he's all that scary.

In September, ET chatted with Hanks at the Toronto International Film Festival, where he was on hand to promote his new film, , in which he plays the late kids show host, Fred Rogers. During the chat, Hanks discussed"What they had was a moment in which they were trying to achieve something that was of stellar importance," he said."Certainly Walt Disney, Charlie Wilson, when I played Charlie Wilson, and a number of other real people."as a departure from familiar territory.

"I think Mr. Fred Rogers is the first person I've played that is not undergoing the great crisis of their business or their lives," he continued."Walt Disney wanted to get a movie made [in, he wanted to go to bat with the Soviet Union. Mr. Rogers doesn't want anything, except maybe for people to understand themselves and the world a little bit better, so that's a different kind of gig.

Nah

One of the best roles imo was when robin williams played the bad guy in “one hour photo”. The not so scary guy can be the creepiest one. tomhanks

No one thought that Robin Williams was scary either but he was amazing and creepy as hell in One Hour Photo.
