I am the villain!
Tom’s allegories for everything never get old. Ha! I love it.
“[Warrior] is like the top end of creating something out of nothing,” Hardy told HitFix in an interview this weekend, saying that the film went through “a million” drafts, took years to edit.
“You deal with something Dark Knight – or ‘Mad Max,’ or ‘Superman’ or ‘Spider-man,’ whatever – it’s like going to work in an airport...

Tom is a beautiful man
I’ve been away for a couple of days so I’m not up to speed, but here’s a lovely comment on Tom from Stephen Graham (who also plays Al Capone - on Boardwalk Empire!):
GQ.com: You recently wrapped Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. How was that? Stephen Graham: Incredible. It’s such a stellar cast that to be asked to be in it was an honour - like getting a phone call from Kenny...

Sublime Tinker
From the Daily Mail, who’s seen Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Yay!
Gary Oldman, who gives one of the best performances of the year as George Smiley in Tomas Alfredson’s big-screen version of John le Carré’s novel Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.
I recall Oldman telling me on set that the key to playing Smiley is to make him disappear.
Oldman certainly pulls that off.
He makes Smiley so...

Tom loves Tom
Everybody loves Tom Hardy seems to be the mantra of 2011. Today it’s Tom Sizemore’s turn to love on Tom. From an interview:
I wonder who of Hollywood’s new leading men Sizemore finds interesting. “Tom Hardy - he’s probably the best young actor right now,” he states, receiving little protest. “I’ve known Tom since Black Hawk Down. If you knew his...

Tom as Al Capone?
One more news thingy today. Seems Tom has a new project. Here’s an excerpt from an article in NYMAG.com:
Another reason for the lack of clarity about The Stand is that Yates has been developing another project at WB: an Al Capone origin story called Cicero. Vulture now hears exclusively that Tom Hardy has attached himself to the project, which was originally written in the seventies as a...

Tom talks about Shia 'throwdown'
Is Tom joking or not? Probably, yes? But I love how Tom says he woke up ‘in Pnut’s arms’. Aww! *g*
We’re not normally interested in celebrity tittle tattle here on Den Of Geek, but one recent story doing the rounds on Monday really caught our eye. According to several news outlets, Shia LaBeouf (he of Transformers fame) came to blows with actor Tom Hardy on the set of The...

Tinker praise
A comment from someone who’s seen Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, and lived to tell us about it:
jonnygeller
just seen the Tinker Tailor movie - most intelligent, visually stunning & gripping movie of the year. Gary Oldman makes you forget Alec Guiness. Maybe not forget but such a different vision of the book you soon forget the grey 70s classic. Tom Hardy is the new Brando
