Video: Tom Hanks Recreates His BIG Rap with YouTubers While Ron Howard Dances in The Background

YouTubers Phil and Wesley from Wong Fu Productions flew to Florence, Italy for the premiere of Ron Howard and Tom Hanks' new movie Inferno, and during the press junket, they convinced Hanks to recreate his famous "shimmy shimmy cocoa pop" rap from the classic 1988 body swap comedy Big. It certainly doesn't seem like Hanks is going to forget those lyrics any time soon, because he doesn't miss a beat here.

For our younger readers who may not have seen Big, check out the clip first, and then watch Hanks flawlessly recreate the magic in the video below (the new recreation of the rap starts at 3:29):

Clip from the Movie "Big" (1988) with Tom Hanks Tom Hanks (12yr old boy) just became older because of his wish from the Zoltar Machine at the carnival, but now no one knows who he is. To prove to his best friend that he is the same kid he sings shimmy shimmy cocoa pop.

We went to Florence, Italy earlier this month to meet our boss, Ron Howard, and rap with Tom Hanks! Seriously though, these two are living legends and it was an honor to meet them in person and encouraging to see how humble and kind they were.
