The next morning, Josh has been transformed into a 30-year-old man, and when he goes back to the plaza with the fortune teller machine, he finds that the carnival, with the machine, has moved on. Fleeing from his mother, who thinks he is a stranger who kidnapped her son, Josh then finds his best friend, Billy Kopecki, at school, and convinces him of his identity by singing a song that only the two of them know. MacMillan asks Josh to come up with proposals for a new line of toys. Big was nominated for Academy Awards for Best Actor in a Leading Role (Tom Hanks) and Best Writing, Original Screenplay.
