Tom Hanks ruined childhoods with Toy Story admission

There are few actors with a resume anywhere near that of Tom Hanks.

He's also of course known and loved as the voice of Woody in Toy Story... well, at least some of the time.

Watch him come clean here:

After pulling the string on the popular cowboy toy, Norton asked: "Is that you?"

"No, it's my brother Jim," Hanks replied.

"There are so many computer games and video things and Jim just works on those all year long.

"[Disney] said, 'You don't want to do this', so I said, 'Get my brother Jim, he'll do it.' So, that's my brother Jim."

You might think that it seems a little idle of the 66-year-old to get his similar-sounding sibling to do his work for him, but the actor explained that playing Woody is much more taxing than you might expect.

"Well, it's fun work because the people are great, but it is very, very hard," he said. "Particularly Woody, because Woody is always yelling, and he's always concerned, you know, he's always doing that kind of stuff."

He continued: "And you have to do eighteen variations of: 'Buzz, if we don't get back there, I’m going to go absolutely berserk!'

"You do it every kind of way you possibly can, until your diaphragm is busted, your throat is raw, and you've spit all over the copy - and it's your fourth hour of doing this."

Speaking to LADbible in 2019, he said: "Well, no one is planning on it (Toy Story 5), but I wouldn't be surprised if somewhere two-and-a-half years from now someone has this kernel of an idea that could become it.

"None of the Toy Story movies are in a schedule, they're not in a pipeline. They don't say, 'on this date, we'll start work on the next Toy Story movie'. They wait until someone comes up with a Toy Story idea that is worthwhile pursuing.

"But I think it's better that no one is anticipating that; I think there is a strength in saying, 'this is as far as we've been able to go and we don't see anything else coming after that', because otherwise it ends up being some inorganic approach to something that has been very, very organic."
