Tom Hanks was a very good choice for the film. He, again, is a seriously underrated actor. Or perhaps I should say: Was. Some of his more recent films have been well received.
He had 2 Oscars before he did Cast Away and was nominated again the year prior for Saving Private Ryan.
I don't think anyone has underestimated Tom Hanks since Big.
