Ironic scene where Hanks watching Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood

I just wanted to point out how ironic and amazing that thirty years later Tom Hanks would be playing Mr. Rogers in “A Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood” when he was watching him on TV in the movie. This happens around 46th minute in the movie.

Just caught that today as well, and yes, goosebumps. Could this reality be one big script after all!? ;-)

I confess I didn't watch that movie cause Tom Hanks just isn't Mr. Rogers to me. He neither looks or sounds like him. It's like if Arnold Schwarzenegger died next year and in 5 years they make a movie about him with Zac Efron in the role.
