Tom in Flair magazine

The British actor insists staying focused is the key to a believable performance. Tom channels all his energies into acting when he is on a movie set, even if he is facing a crisis in his personal life.
“You cannot care too...

Tinker Tailor press conference
On Monday Sept 5, there will be a press conference at the film festival in Venice and Gary Oldman, Colin Firth and John Hurt will join Tomas Alfredson to talk about the film before it’s premiere the same night.
Sounds brilliant! Too bad Tom’s probably too busy. And Benedict. Looks like neither of them will attend the festival.
I’m still hoping we’ll see the two of them...

Roundtable interview with Tom & Joel →
Audio of the roundtable interview with Tom & Joel for Warrior. It’s hilarious! Tom talks about how the script at first had Tommy swimming with rocks in his rucksack, how he’s not Chuck Norris and how he needed a dialect coach because otherwise he’d speak in a Mexican twang. Ha!
There’s also his Starbucks-apology thing about The Dark Knight Rises. And the cry-comment...

The full interview with Tom in Men’s Fitness October 2011 (my transcript):
HARD KNOCK LIFE
Actor Tom Hardy threw himself into MMA training for his latest role, and found a surprisingly friendly underside to the world’s toughest sport.
Boxing films are proven award bait to the violence loving members of the Academy (the Oscar-winning Rocky, Raging Bull and When We Were Kings) but...

Where's the mole - the musical
A lovely tale from the set of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.
Gary Oldman recalled the quiet day on set, during the making of the big-screen version of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, when the famous espionage drama turned into a musical.
It was raining, or snowing, Oldman told me. ‘It was one of those days when we were waiting for the right weather and we were stuck in the trailer, twiddling our thumbs,...

Tom talks to Variety
Tom wants to explain himself. Also, he cries when reading comics? Or reads comics and cries, but not at the same time?

Tom loves Gary
In this video interview,on the question of which actor they’d be nervous to work with because they’re so great, Joel Edgerton gave praise to Gary Oldman, thus giving Tom the opportunity to return the love bestowed on him by Gary before (you know, how Gary & Tom will get married and Gary thinks Tom is ‘red meat’).
Joel: I’ve actually been quite jealous of Tom...
