SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — Tom Hanks is in New Mexico working on another film.
The New Mexico Film Office announced Wednesday that Hanks is co-producing and starring in “News of the World,” a post-Civil War adventure saga that is filming in and around Santa Fe through November.
Directed by Paul Greengrass, the film is based on the National Book Award finalist and best-selling novel by Paulette Jiles.
New Mexico Economic Development Secretary Alicia J. Keyes says it’s reassuring that film industry leaders are returning to New Mexico to benefit from its locations, crew and tax incentives.
