Colin Hanks Gives Us '33 Variations'

colin0320.jpg

Colin Hanks spoke with us about being in the new Broadway show "33 Variations."

Written by Moises Kaufman, the play stars Hanks as Mike Clark, and Jane Fonda as Katherine Brandt, a woman racing against time to solve the riddle of a composer’s 200-year-old obsession. As she faces her daughter, her past and Beethoven himself, Katherine must struggle to embrace the legacy of her own life. Fonda stopped by recently to talk about her role in the play as well.

Hanks broke through in film with his leading role in Orange County and has recently been seen in The House Bunny and as Father Gill in AMC's Mad Men. He is the son of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson.

"33 Variations" is now playing on Broadway at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre.

His mother was Tom Hanks' first wife, the late producer and actress Samantha Lewes. Not Rita Wilson.
