Tom Hanks Opposes Separate Oscar Category for Voice Actors

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Two-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks has expressed his views on whether the Academy Awards should introduce a dedicated category for voice actors. The actor, who recently returned as Woody in Toy Story 5, believes that the Oscars do not need a separate category for voice work, stating, “They have enough.”

Hanks argued that voice actors should instead be recognized within the existing acting categories. He explained that there are multiple voice actors who possess the necessary "chops" to win a statuette in one of the current categories already established by the Academy.
