Comparable to Hanks, probably (although without as much hardware)

Who are you saying has less hardware? Denzel has been nominated for 9 Oscars and won 2 of them.

Jonah Hill. Could have easily fallen into the physical fatty humor and never grown out of it. I thought that’s be his niche.

But he’s killed it in dramatic roles.

Maniac.
Money Ball.
Wolf of Wall street
War Dogs

Also didn’t think anything of Channing Tatum going into Jumpstreet but he’s ended up being a hilarious physical action comedy star.

Now that I look at it, they're fairly close for major film wins - Hanks' 8 to Denzel's 6 (and Denzel also has a Tony).

Hanks has 2 Oscar wins (5 noms), 4 competitive GG wins (and a Cecil B. Demille), back to back SAG wins to pair with his Oscar wins. He has 5 BAFTA nominations with no wins.

Outside of Denzel's 2 of 9 at Oscar, he has 3 GGs, and 1 SAG. Notably, no BAFTA nominations.
