Tom Hanks has long been considered a great actor, but fans have grown concerned after spotting one thing during his sketch on Saturday Night Live.

Regardless of who you are, you probably like a little bit of Tom Hanks, which is why his latest appearance has caught the attention of many.

The 68-year-old veteran actor has likely been on TV screens longer than you have been alive, so naturally, people have begun speaking about the inevitable.

Considering the simple fact that the Forrest Gump actor won’t be around forever, fans are growing more concerned with his health.

Appearing on Saturday Night Live on December 21, Hank was joined with a host of other familiar faces, but audiences swear they noticed one key detail.

Taking to social media, some fans claimed that at points it looks as if Hanks’ hands are unintentionally shaking.

Writing on SNL’s official Instagram account one person commented: "Is Tom Hanks’ hand shaking?”

Another said: "I also noticed it!!! And now I am concerned."

Writing on Twitter another commented: “Tom Hanks is looking so old did anyone else clock his hands shaking. I’ll cry."

Another added: "I noticed that Tom Hanks hands shake a little bit."

While shaking isn’t definitively a sign that Hanks has any health issues, it can be an early sign of Parkinson's.

UNILAD has contacted Tom Hank’s representatives for comment.

Despite the concerns from fans about his health, a few weeks back in November, while speaking to Entertainment Tonight, the star gave people an update on his wellbeing.

Hanks insisted that he is feeling just as good, if not better, than he did back in his 30s.

Promoting his newest movie, Here, he said: “Look, I’m 68 years old, the hardest for us was when we were playing 35.

“That's time where your metabolism stops, gravity starts tearing you down, your bones start wearing off, you stand differently — I think I’m in better shape now.”

Hanks was even praised for looking good despite getting up there in the years and he gave a rather cheeky response.

He answered: “You know why? Because my kids are grown up, I’m getting decent exercise, and I can eat right. You can’t do that when you’re 35. Life is such a burden!”

I bet being a rich powerhouse in your industry also doesn’t hurt keep you youthful, eh Tom.
