His son Chester or Chet, 23, is a little more outspoken, it would seem, as he's just become embroiled in a Twitter row with a rapper who criticised his authenticity.
The privileged youngster performs under the name Chet Haze, and came in for a bit of stick after he tweeted this entreaty: 'If u in LA stop by the open mic near fairfax high tonight at 9 ima be there blessing the mic with spoken word.'
Hollywood royalty: Tom Hanks' son Chester - here
with his father and mother Rita Wilson at the premiere of Extremely and
Incredibly Close in 2011 - has become embroiled in a Twitter row with
another rapper
To which Chet responded: 'So cuz my Dads famous, I can't do what I want to do in my life? Nah, that's just what YOU wouldn't do... Cuz you're basic.'
Karp responded brilliantly with: 'I would reflect my upbringing correctly, not pretend I was raised like Mobb Deep, dude. You visited the set of Turner & Hooch.'
Then Chet, obviously riled, went on a bit of a rant that sort of proved Karp's point.
Spat: Chester and Karp went back and forth on Twitter before the former challenged the latter to a rap off
'You visited the set of Forrest Gump!' Chet is upset his love of rap is overshadowed by his dad's fame
The Hollywood progeny typed: 'I don't know who you are but u can do yourself a favor and stay the f*** outta my timeline!' and 'lil b****' then 'Ill just be nothing, do nothing, and offend nobody. That way id be jus like YOUR irrelevant ass.'
He added: 'U don't know s*** about me or my story so how the f*** u gon comment on the way I talk? U never even met me. Sit your ass down.'
Karp hit back with evidence that he did indeed, know Chet's story and that it took place in an affluent suburb of Los Angeles: 'U went to private school & talk like you're French Montana. Even saying "swagger" should be illegal for a kid raised in Brentwood.'
He continued: 'Chet, your father is Tom Hanks. America's sweetheart. And you're talking about smoking kush and banging dime pieces. It's acting.'
Owned: Chet came out of this exchange poorly, although there's not much he can do about his background
Hilarious: The row went on for some time between the pair
Chet came back with: 'My whole life I been getting s*** from jealous nerds like you simply because I love Rap.'
I't's f***ing hilarious. My passion has nothing to do with your petty existence, so don't f***in get them twisted.
'Difference between me and these clowns is I actually will beat your ass if I see u in person whereas y'all are all #soft. Y'all just use the same jokes over and over again. Forrest Gump, Capt Phillips ha ha ha.
'Say something original at least. I'm outta here doe. Just wanted to keep it real on these twitter nerds for once...'
However Karp killed him with: 'I am actually not hating, I'm trying to help. No one wants to hear the fake black accent from a kid who knows the Speilbergs.'
Chet then challenged Karp to a rap battle and the latter asked if Ron Howard could be the judge.
Chester is the eldest child of Hanks and wife Rita Wilson, they also have Truman, 18.
Wilson is the actor's second wife, he has two children - Colin and Elizabeth - by his first, actress Samantha Lewes.
Colin, 36, is also an actor and has made his father a grandpa twice with Olivia, two, and baby Charlotte.
