Tom Hanks covers his face with a green bandana as he ventures out in LA… following news his WWII drama Greyhound is skipping theaters

He’s famously one of the first celebrities to contract -and subsequently recover from- COVID-19. 

But even so, Tom Hanks wasn’t willing to take any chances, with the Forrest Gump star covering his face with a green bandana when he ventured out in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

The protective garment matched the 63-year-old Oscar winner’s green T-shirt, as he hopped into his car to run errands.

The Catch Me If You Can star also wore dark trousers and a pair of leather loafers. 

The outing comes just weeks after Hanks revealed that he is donating plasma containing COVID-19 antibodies to help researchers develop a vaccine for the virus.

Hanks was the first celebrity to share publicly in March that he had tested positive for COVID-19.

He and wife Rita Wilson, also positive, were hospitalized in Australia where they were treated for the coronavirus and ultimately recovered.
