It has been quite some time since Tom Hanks has done anything really dramatic, so word that he’s attached to the big screen adaptation of A Captain’s Duty so soon after shooting Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is good news to anyone who fondly remembers when Hanx was more than a talking children’s toy. In Duty , the two-time Oscar winner would star as Richard Phillips, who was the captain of the Maersk Alabama when it was taken over by Somali pirates in 2009. Scott Rudin and the team behind The Social Network will produce. [ Deadline ]
