Apple TV snaps up another Tom Hanks movie
Apple is once again betting on a Tom Hanks movie to attract viewers and awards. Deadline has learned that Apple TV has bought the rights to Finch (formerly Bios), a sci-fi movie that stars Hanks as the namesake character who builds a robot to take care of his dog once he's gone. The three set out into a post-apocalyptic American West where Finch teaches his robot the "joy and wonder" of being alive. The tech giant won a "very competitive" bidding war between streaming services, according to Deadline. Finch was originally meant as a Universal release.
