Tom Hanks And Sandra Bullock Recreate Iconic Giant Piano Scene From “Big”

The piano is a remarkable instrument, producing rich, complex sounds from its deceptively simple design. For centuries, master pianists have filled concert halls with their incredible performances, and convey deep emotions and intricate melodies. Today’s pianos, while modern, continue to captivate with their unique charm.

Playing the piano at a high level demands years of dedication and skill, usually with your hands. But imagine the challenge of playing with your legs instead. That’s exactly what Tom Hanks and Sandra Bullock tackled, turning a seemingly impossible feat into an impressive display of talent and fun.

In the 1988 film “Big,” Tom Hanks delivered a memorable performance on a giant piano. In one standout scene, the younger Hanks, full of youthful energy, leaps onto the oversized keyboard and plays “Chopsticks” with his feet. This quirky moment has stuck with fans for over three decades, making it one of the most iconic scenes from Hanks’s career.

When Tom Hanks appeared on the Jonathon Ross’s show in 2013, he brought a playful twist to the stage. Instead of a typical setup, Ross surprised the audience by rolling out a keyboard floor mat that lit up in sync with the performance. The fun didn’t stop there—Tom and Jonathon also debuted some fresh dance moves.

The highlight of the night was when Sandra Bullock joined them for a playful rendition of “Chopsticks.” Although she didn’t play the entire song, her performance in heels added an extra touch of charm to the night.

Many viewers also noticed Tom Hanks’ act as Sandra Bullock was coming out. He offered his arm to her down the stairs and he looked out for her in those heels. Meanwhile, others felt so excited when seeing two favorite actors sharing funny moments on one stage.
