I can't see Hanks as Walt Disney. At all.
It's not exactly perfect "looks" casting--but with makeup, and if he nails the voice and mannerisms, I can see it. Hanks is talented enough to probably
come up with something convincing.

Isn't Tom Hanks slated to be in the "Jungle Cruise" movie? I would think if anything that he may appear as that character in the "Magic Kingdom" film. Now as far as an actor who could play Walt, that is very tricky, depends on what age they want to present Walt, but in all likelihood it would bee '55 or older Walt, after he had become "America's Uncle".
That`s about right. Travers agreed to let the Disneys make the movie in 1960 which would have made him 59 at the time. Mary Poppins was released in 1964.
I think this is the first casting of many for the Magic Kingdom movie project. I always said that Paul Newman was the man for the role. His soft-spoken voice and his grandfather like persona would be a perfect fit. They will have a hard time finding some to play such an iconic man. Tom Hanks would try his best, but I believe would come off as fake, like when he did the voice for Santa in the Polar express. I my opinion I think that Tom Selleck would actually pull it off. One of the best part of the Meet the Robinson's movie was when he was talking to his younger self, you could hear some of the low monotone and soothing sounds in his voice Like Mr. Disney. Plus we all know he can pull off the mustache, Magnum PI
Ed Norton would be a great Walt Disney.
Tom Hanks? I'll have to see it.
Interesting thought. I'm honestly not sure who could pull the role off. I do like Edward Norton but i'm not sure about him as Walt.
