CLIPS on Instagram: "🎬 Fun Fact: Forrest Gump (1994) The famous scene where Forrest runs across the country was filmed in over 20 different locations across the United States. Tom Hanks actually did much of the running himself, though his younger brother, Jim Hanks — who closely resembles him — stepped in as a running double for some of the long-distance shots. This helped keep the production schedule manageable while still delivering the authentic energy that made the sequence so memorable."
