Mister Rogers Movie Trailer Released – Tom Hanks Is Perfect In Portraying Beloved Fred Rogers
Sony Pictures revealed the first trailer for “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood,” a film about Fred Rogers, one of the country’s most beloved entertainment icons and host of the long-running children’s TV series, “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood,” debuted Monday.
Rogers is played by Hanks, a two-time Academy Award winner who holds a similarly warm place in the hearts of many moviegoers.
It’s only about 2 minutes of footage, but it’s immediately clear that Tom Hanks is the perfect actor to portray Mister Rogers in this biopic, donning the iconic Mister Rogers sweater and emitting an overwhelming aura of comfort — a human weighted blanket.
Hitting theaters this November, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood explores the inimitable children’s show host life and impact on others through the lens of his relationship with journalist Lloyd Vogel (who is based on real-life Esquire journalist Tom Junod).
