Oscar winner Tom Hanks says Walt Disney always wanted to make great movies. So he thinks his "Forrest Gump" collaborator Robert Zemeckis was just the right man to reimagine "Pinocchio" for a new generation."Pinocchio" first entered the hearts of moviegoers back in 1940. Now 82 years later, there's a new version starring Tom Hanks and directed by Oscar winner Robert Zemeckis. The two previously worked together on "Forrest Gump.
"Tom and I have a shorthand," said Zemeckis. "I mean, Tom has said to me in the past, he says, 'I always know we're going to do another one depending on how I hear you say the word cut.'" Hanks says Walt Disney wanted to make great movies...so Zemeckis was the right man to reimaging this Disney masterpiece.
"Handing this over to Bob Zemeckis at this day and age, I think that holds with that tradition," said Hanks.
