Fears for Tom Hanks as fans spot his trembling hands again during SNL appearance

Tom Hanks’s appearance on Saturday Night Live this weekend sparked fresh concerns for his health. 

The actor, 68, turned out to support host Martin Short along with a slew guest stars including Scarlett Johansson, Paul Rudd, and John Mulaney.

During the show’s recurring Five-Timers Club segment, which inducted the Only Murders In The Building star, fans noted the Forest Gump icon’s trembling hands.

One fan commented under a promotional post on SNL’s official Instagram account, ‘Is Tom Hanks’ hand shaking?’

A user named Lara joined the thread to add, ‘I also noticed it!!! And now I am concerned.’ 

‘He was on The Graham Norton show a while back and I noticed it there too…’ a third concerned fan added.

Meanwhile, one person reasoned, ‘Considering he’s almost 70! Yeah older people hands tends to shake a little.’

It’s not the first time fans have expressed worry over the Hollywood leading man’s shaky hands.

In June 2022 he appeared unable to control his shaking right hand while holding a microphone and speaking as he promoted Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis movie.

Hanks tried to control the shaking by placing his left hand at the bottom of the microphone, below his right. He also briefly switched hands.

Lisa Kudrow recently critiqued Tom’s new film Here, condemning the usage of digital de-aging.

The 61-year-old actress said the new fantasy drama film was an ‘endorsement for AI.’

In the movie, which was released on October 25, Hanks reunited with Forrest Gump costar Robin Wright in a multi-generational story, which depicted the cast as their characters over several eras.

It followed last year’s SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes calling for regulation of the modern technology.

The Friends star appeared on a recent episode of Dax Shepard’s Armchair Expert podcast and blasted Hank and director Robert Zemeckis’ film.

‘They shot it, and they could actually shoot the scene and then look at the playback of them as younger, and it’s ready for them to see,’ she explained on the podcast.

‘And all I got from that was, this is an endorsement for AI and oh, my God. It’s not like, “Oh, it’s going to ruin everything,” but what will be left? Forget actors, what about up-and-coming actors? They’ll just be licensing and recycling,’ she argued.

Kudrow continued: ‘Set that completely aside, what work will there be for human beings? Then what?

‘There’ll be some kind of living stipend for people, you won’t have to work? How can it possibly be enough?’
