Like Father, Like Son: Colin Hanks Teams With Meg Ryan For 'Mom's New Boyfriend'

Colin HanksA decade ago, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan were the magical movie couple, seemingly unable to do any wrong at the box-office. Now, Hanks' son is hoping to recapture some of that late-Nineties gold.

"There's a movie I did with Meg Ryan - as well as Antonio Banderas and Selma Blair - which should be coming out at the beginning of the year," the 29-year-old "King Kong" star told us. "But I don't know the name. We've sort of changed movie titles, so I don't know what it's called."

"I play an FBI agent who comes home to find out that his mother is dating an FBI suspect," he said of the flick, which is now actually being called "My Mom's New Boyfriend." "He's forced to bug the dates that his mom and this art thief [played by Banderas] go on, and comedy ensues."

But if the title does revert to its old moniker, just know that Martin Lawrence has nothing to do with it. "'National Security'?" Hanks repeated, referring to the 2003 Lawrence comedy. "No, ours was called 'Homeland Security', but they changed the title ... Maybe [fear of confusion] is why they're changing it."

And if that film's February release hits hard, look for the younger Hanks to double his old-school leading lady pleasure with a Diane Lane flick, also due in theaters at about the same time. "'Untraceable' is a thriller with Diane Lane ... a very twisted kind of thriller, about this guy who tortures people online."

Once again, Hanks will play a federal agent. "[The killer] tortures people live online, and we try to find out where he is and stop him," he explained. "Diane and I play the FBI cyber cops that try and catch him."

Directed by criminally-underrated filmmaker Gregory Hoblit ("Fracture," "Frequency," "Primal Fear"), the film also stars Mary Beth Hurt and Joseph Cross. Hanks, however, is quick to disassociate "Untraceable" from "Saw" and its disciples. "It's pretty intense, but it's not torture porn," he grinned. "Some of the stuff I've seen is pretty gruesome - but I like to keep my torture and my porn separate."
