It doesn’t get much bigger than this—we’re talking Tom Hanks, a Hollywood powerhouse. Whether it’s his heartfelt dramatic performances or his charming comedic roles, he’s won over audiences for decades. Honestly, can you name a single person who doesn’t love at least one of his films? What better way to honour the legend than by battling it out to build the ultimate Tom Hanks film lineup?
If you’ve ever played fantasy football, you’ll get the gist. We’re drafting from Hanks’ entire filmography, taking turns to fill six distinct categories. Once a player locks in a pick, it’s final—and that movie is off the board for everyone else. Draft order? Decided by the legendary Wheel of Names. And since we’re using a snake draft, the playing field stays even.
