I'd like to see Hanks portray a completely vile and abhorrent evil guy.
No, I don't consider Road to Perdition in the same vein. He was an anti-hero in that. I'm talking about something similar to Henry Fonda in Once Upon A Time in The West (1968) - whereby Fonda played a murdering rapist with no remorse, someone who actively took joy in his evil.
As to why I used Fonda as an example...at the time, Fonda was like Hanks. He was the quessential good guy. He always portrayed the hero, and in real life was a very good guy. So to see him in that role shocked many. He pulled it off perfectly.
Fonda portrayed one of the greatest villains ever in that film. It would be cool to see Hanks play a murderer/rapsit in a film that pushes his boundaries as an actor.
