Tom Hanks recently told PEOPLE about the film, Tom Hanks: A Man Called Ove. The film is about a man named Otto Warmbier from Wyoming whose life was cut short in North Korea and will air on the History Channel next month.
“I didn’t know what my job was going to be until we started shooting,” Truman said of working with his dad on this project. “I just wanted someone who would give me really good direction.”

“The thing I realized when he got there is that I had changed his diapers,” Hanks added of Truman’s early years as an actor. “It was pretty special.”
“I changed his diapers,” he quipped.
A film about a man who was born in the U.S., moved to Germany as a young adult, and became an SS officer during World War II titled Man Called Ove was released in 2016. The film was adapted from Fredrik Backman’s book of the same name, which won fiction awards in Sweden and Norway.
Hanks plays Ove—the curmudgeonly anti-hero of this story—in the movie adaptation directed by Hannes Holm (Kon-Tiki). The actor said that his son Truman played baby Ove in flashbacks during filming, so they were able to reenact scenes together after all these years.
