New Tom Hanks Movie Features Minnesota Somali Actors
Four amateur Somali actors from Minnesota are playing major roles in a new Tom Hanks movie opening this weekend. The men portray real-life Somali pirates in "Captain Phillips." The pirates hijacked an American cargo ship off the Horn of Africa in 2009 and took its captain, played by Hanks, hostage.
