BIOS (Amblin Entertainment) | Oct 2
Although Tom Hanks did have a post-apocalyptic thread in Cloud Atlas, we haven't really seen him flex that muscle too much. Instead, he's been starring in biopics and dramas and Da Vinci Lawmaking spinoffs. Needless to say, BIOS is exciting because it gives Hanks something a bit different to chew on.
