FORT RILEY, Kan. â As a boy, Michael Conner Humphreys made a splash on the silver screen as Young Forrest Gump.. As an adult, he somewhat mirrored the life of his movie character: He joined the Army and fought in an unpopular war. Humphreys' enlistment ends June 4 and Hollywood is already calling. He's landed a role in an independent film, playing, of course, a soldier. It's a route similar to that of Tom Hanks, who won the Oscar for playing adult Forrest Gump.
