This is a question that's been troubling me for the last few days. Few actors have the same track record for versatility as Tom Hanks but I've never seen him play the bad guy. Even when he played a gangster in Road to Perdition, he was the protagonist in a sympathetic role.
There are a number of actors who I don't think are as good but seem more adept at switching from good to bad; John Travolta demonstrates this brilliantly in Face Off and his whole career shows him going from good to bad at the drop of a hat; Michael Douglas is another one who can make the switch but I've never seen Tom Hanks do it and it's something I would really like to see.
If anyone knows of any films where Tom Hanks plays the bad guy, please share them. I'm also interested in any thoughts and opinions that people have on the matter.
