A software engineer but really a musician and a writer.
The Big Picture Empire and Your Honor star Chet Hanks might not be as popular as his Hollywood-heavy family as of yet, but the star is on the rise as he’s about to turn some necks around on the popular reality series The Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets — with Season 8, Episode 1 already out and we living for it! According to the 33-year-old, his father Tom Hanks, and mother Rita Wilson, who have probably faced various awkward situations due to their son’s controversies, are happy for him.
Hanks Is Joined by ‘Teen Wolf’ Star Tyler Posey Close Hanks had previously been in hot water on social media after using a faux Jamaican accent, and also for spouting the phrase “white boy summer.” After years of being the relative black sheep of the family, however, an appearance on a reality TV show that stars multiple other famous faces is far from his worst days.
The Surreal Life Is a Different Kind of Show Unlike his father and even his older brother Colin Hanks, the actor has had his ups and downs over the years, doing bit parts in a number of series and movies before appearing in the hit Showtime dramedy Shameless in his first role of major substance. During this time, he was also in two episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm before landing a 24-episode run on Empire. Most recently, he played Joey Maldini in the Bryan Cranston-led crime thriller Your Honor.
