Tom Hardy with personal trainer Ricky Moore.

Me and Tom hardy after a hardcore chest and delt workout!!
I helped Tom with all aspects of his training , nutrition and supplementation for his role as Bane in the new Batman film!
What a top guy he is!!

And some words from Tom from Ricky’s website

I was in the Leeds area for a few of days and when I was looking for an advanced personal trainer in the area I was recommended to Ricky Moore by a friend. I did a couple of workouts with Ricky and found him to be very knowledgeable on both exercise and nutrition and would highly recommend him to anyone who’s serious about getting in shape, I really enjoyed my sessions with Ricky and I wish I was in the area longer and could have done a few more!!

In the build-up to my role as Bane in the new Batman movie I needed to add some serious muscle to my frame to look like the imposing monster from the comics, so in that time I was in regular contact via phone and e-mail with Ricky to ask his advice on all aspects of training, nutrition and supplementation to get the most amount of muscle on my frame in the shortest time possible!

“Chris and him [Tom] talked about the fact that he didn’t really want Bane to be, you know, a Mr Universe, to have this beautiful body. He wanted him to look like a big, tough—almost like a circus strongman.

And that’s what his body looks like. You don’t want to get near that body.”  - Charles Roven, producer / dvd extras


um…

Indeed.

So yes, that is definitely the make-up over Tom’s tattoos coming off in big chunks… Thank god for digital editing, eh?

Tom Hardy on set as Bane in - from what you can tell - a different version of the mask. Prototype, perhaps?

And with some pretty hardcore suspenders.

What kind of dance is this, pray tell? Or is Bane training his discus throwing technique?

How practical that they can edit out/cover not only the tattoos, but all his chest hair too! I wonder how much is make-up and how much is post-production.

I do prefer him WITH his body hair and tattoos. He looks so naked without.

BANE.

He’s even got a nice tablecloth there. Cosy.
