Hanks is desperate to destroy his nice guy image, by playing a
Shakespearean villain.
The Oscar winner has carved an ultra-successful career out of playing
everyday heroes on the big screen, but he hasn't given up hope of shaking
off his stereotype.
Hanks confesses he would love the chance to star in Othello, playing
bad guy Iago.
He says, "There are Shakespearean villains I'd jump at the chance
to play, given the right circumstances."
