Tom Hanks has declared he is finally confident about his acting ability.

“I no longer feel insecure about my acting. Early on I took any job that was offered, milking it for the money,” said the double Oscar-winner.

“I had no idea what I was doing — that’s when insecurity and self-loathing start.”

The 52-year-added that he has also thrown away his vanity.

“After a while you have to give up being vain. In [new film] Angels And Demons I have to wear a Speedo to go swimming,” Hanks told  Britain’s Radio Times.

“It takes a real man to slap on a Speedo and say, ‘I’m ready for work.’”
