There are many actors and actresses known to the public for their on-screen exploits and personas, but there are few who are as well-loved as Tim Allen.
Having held down a spot at the top of Hollywood for decades, there isn’t much that hasn’t been said about the 69-year-old, whether by critics or fans.
It should go without saying that he’s had his fair share of friendships over the years – after all, when you’ve worked with as many people as Tim has, you’re bound to have a veritable who’s who of contacts in your phone book.
Yet, according to the man himself, there’s one person he trusts above all others in the world of showbiz. Fittingly, it’s a man who played his on-screen counterpart in one of the most memorable children’s movies of all time.
In a recent interview on the Kelly Clarkson show, Allen spoke of the fast friendship he has built with the widely-adored Tom Hanks.
“He and I differ on so many things. I adore that man’s heart and mind,” Allen said of Hanks.
The A-list pair were reportedly recent seen out and about together, prompting rumors that they might be working on a new film.
“We’ve been going to lunch since Toy Story 1, two times a year, and we’re like two older women ’cause we will sit almost too close to each other at a booth,” Allen said.
