And we would head out, and for 50 minutes the sun would be rising behind us on the open sea, and we would be heading towards the island of Monuriki, which is where we shot.” And then I would swim out to the special fishing boat … get on with the pilot and the mate and one of the guys from the crew. The sky wasn’t even yet to turn blue, in the East, and I would make a cup of coffee then I would stroll down the gravel road to where the pier was. The house would be quiet - everybody would be in bed.
“The sun was not yet up in the East, and I would get up wearing nothing but a Speedo and a T-shirt. Hanks then shared a funny story about how he started his days while working on the film. We were off in Fiji on two different occasions… There was nothing but adventures every single day, every single night.” “I mean we were out in the middle of the ocean just - you know - trying to grab shots.
“We had just bold adventures when we were making that movie,” Hanks explained.
