By the looks of the trailer, “Greyhound,” adapted by Hanks himself from C.S. Forester’s novel “The Good Shepherd,” could very well be part of the latter, but let’s be a tad cautious here. The fictional story of Ernest Krause, a U.S. Navy commander who leads a convoy of American ships across the Atlantic during World War II while being pursued by the Nazis, is a perfect fit for Hanks who captained his own ship in 2013’s intensely realized “Captain Phillips.”
As mentioned, Hanks has written the screenplay for “Greyhound,” which is helmed by cinematographer-turned-director Aaron Schneider Starring alongside Hanks are Elizabeth Shue, playing the commander’s wife Eva, and Stephen Graham, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and Rob Morgan.
“Greyhound” is released into theaters on June 12th.
