Tom Hanks opens up about whether he could play gay again like he did in Philadelphia. It was this film that won him his first Oscar. Recall that there Tom played the role of a gay lawyer who was wrongfully fired due to the fact that he was diagnosed with HIV.
However, in his new interview, the actor said that if he were now offered to play in this film, he would refuse. Now this 65-year-old male celebrity believes that gay roles should be played by gay people. This is what makes the movies look real, because it is still more difficult for straight people to get used to the role of gays.
Stars such as Neil Patrick Harris and Benedict Cumberbatch also expressed their opinions on this issue.
