Tom Hardy: The Dark Knight Rises interview - "playing Bane won't make me a household name"

[JesterJoker17]

Don't worry Tom Hardy, I'll know it's you who plays Bane lmao. You rock man

[BamCam9]

Doesnt show much professionalism here just trying to impress edgeteron by being rude to the interviewer really.

[yamisupersaiyan]

@BamCam9 Professionalism? Nolans sworn Hardy to secrecy and hes mentioned it over and over again. Hardys messing around with idiots who keeping asking him about TDKR

[jhigginbotham151]

didnt no charles bronson was in warrior

[jdogg8830]

hardys a cocky bitch, but hes right, he wont win an oscar like ledger

[kdbhasin1956]

@jdogg8830 WTF!!! He'll get an oscar. Mark my words :] 

[qwuezalothus]

Why can't ask smart questions? The story is tabu, so are the character's role in it. But there are still many thing you can ask from Hardy. This is so stupid for an interview!

[MegaDoctorH]

when ppl start to recognize him, yo will have my permission to die

[TheBANEBANEBANE]

he'll be good as playing me

[viralfunnies]

perhaps he's wondering why someone would shoot a man, before throwing him out of a plane

[mknippy1]

LOL is he picking his nose @0:15 ???

[KeshK123]

@mknippy1 he's itching it which is normal...

[FuzzyJiggles]

@matthew2y Why so serious?

[shockedbyjoy]

And that was that.

[FallenM16]

That guy next to him look so confused Lol

[DarkGodCthulhu]

All the way through The Dark Knight Rises, I'm just going to be thinking "Shinzon got a bit sick there, didn't he?"

[Darkknightfan426]

Hardy is already a household name worldwide

[Huppeldepup17]

It's kind of sad to see the look on Joel Edgerton's face when Tom Hardy says that he won't be an household name, because I think Joel would really like to know why he would say that. But then Tom has to laugh it off with an example of the nature of the character (the mask) because he , ofcourse, isn't allowed to say anything more.

[RaikenXion]

He has changed so much since Star Trek Nemesis, its unbelievable seeing as its the same person. Tom Hardy is such a badass in movies now, can u imagine pitting him against Daniel Craig as a Bond Villain!? He'd wipe Craig's 007 all over the place! lol.

[MegaMaverick1994]

Basically Nolan told everybody not to mention anything about the plot or anything.

[terrybogard21]

Tom hardy says nobody will notice him or realize it's him, but the same could be said about Ledger and look how insane he rose even after death. I just hope this role he did for Bane doesn't drive him nuts as much as the joker did to Ledger. 

[Ellesar23]

@terrybogard21

how did the Role of Joker drive Ledger nuts?? he was perfectly fine and you can see that in the interviews he was doing after shooting the movie..

[armanmlm]

@Ellesar23 He had sleeping disorder, insomnia helped him portray the wild mind of joker. He died due to high allergic reaction to sleeping pills. Part of the 1 in 100,000 side effects. Alternative medicine meaning none-natural always provides DEADLY side effects yes also over the counter pills. Warning labels don't stop you from buying cigarettes so don't expect it to work for Tylenol.

[armanmlm]

@terrybogard21 I doubt Bane would be a psychologically challenging character to play as. I say the challenge is to make Tom Hardy a terrifying 6'8 350 Lbs nightmare. Those who will say "Nolan will make a realistic bane not a comic book one" can suck a BBC. Bane is not Bane if there is no venom or feats of supernatural strength and freakish built. Otherwise it's just a prick speaking through a toilet bowl.

[1996LWG]

@armanmlm about the terrifying 6'8 350 lbs nightmare... you have seen bronson right?

[DonRach8992]

He actually sounds like he's joking when he's constantly saying no. Kinda like he was smiling while saying it even if he was serious.

[Sarnius26]

He's an awesome actor for Bane.

[DjArpegius]

I just saw The Warrior with Bane and Conan O'brien. ossim movie guys

[drunkonmilk87]

@DjArpegius his name isnt bane...

[DjArpegius]

@drunkonmilk87 does it offend you if I call him Bane?

[drunkonmilk87]

@DjArpegius no its just weird, its not his name...

[howiescream]

Now Tom Hardy will die before the films release. HA-HA-HA-HA-HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!­!!!!!!!

[AstriaICOW]

Tom Hardy was SUPER good in Elizabeth the Virgin Queen as Robert Dudley.

[Fartsurmonde]

Going by the standard of the actors in this version I would say this is going to be the best version to date.

[siccmadegames]

rocknrolla....

[Posthumancorpse]

@EtherMagic I know you dream of a man of steel fairy, but Hardy is in no way a dickhead or a disrespectful punk. Nolan had the whole plot and script on lockdown. Therefore, Tom has told countless interviewers before he can't really comment on anything about his role in The Dark Knight Rises. Still people insist on pushing the subject so he avoids it. You sir, are a cunt.

[junkhobokiller]

@EtherMagic lool u fuckin cunt, oh this makes me not wanna see the movie, waa, waa, waa his a big meany, grow some balls and stop whinying like a fuckin girl. Also if ur actually stupid enough to base his personality on this video alone, then it just tells everyone how smart u really. His a normal person what do u expect? for him not to have a sense of humour, grow up u fuckin cunt

[junkhobokiller]

@EtherMagic first off wtf r u talkin bout u sounded like a little 10 year old girl to me. Secondly saying learn how to write doesnt make you look smarter, it is just unnecessary or is that suposed to be a polite or a distinguished way to insult me lool yh im really ashamed of my self(sarcasm).

[EtherMagic]

@junkhobokiller I don't see what your problem is with Hardy in this interview, fact is he was told not to say anything, I'd be acting just as Hardy has if everybody and there mother was asking me about the movie. Hardy was payed good money by the studio for his roll as Bane, confidentiality is part of his paycheck. Stop acting like a baby, if you don't want to see the movie thats fine, there are a million other people that will be more then happy to take your seat in the theater

[junkhobokiller]

@EtherMagic wtf r u talking about u must have replyed to the wrong person mate

[CineRecon]

All Hail Shin Zon!!!

[1972mgoblue]

watch: URBAN MEYER HATED BY HITLER.

[PaladinHero]

It was rude of the interviewer to ask about a SUPER lucrative and popularizing role that Tom Hardy would be playing in front of his "Warrior" costar. I could see that in a 1-on-1 interview but not here. I wouldn't have taken the question seriously either.

[goldieboylover986]

best. interview. ever.

[peteagassi]

The guy next to Hardy is as dead as a door nail.

[desireealicea]

check out joel's face through all this...poor guy, he doesn't know what to do! :D

[manz92]

@desireealicea lol he probably would love to play bane!

[xxbluelollipopxx]

Haha, I love it. XD

[aziz1993]

How is he being a douche? This is fucking hilarious LOOL

[deadbeatful]

haha 0:25 i saw a little bit of bronson come out.

[Huppeldepup17]

Haha, I lost it when he said ''no, you can't'' xD

[oscareightyfour]

lol, awesome humor at least.

[oscareightyfour]

lol, awesome humor at least.

[oscareightyfour]

lol, awesome humor at least.

[FATHERKINKY]

I like how Tom Hardy knew exactly what he was about to ask him before he did :) .. Just goes to show the amount of times people keeping asking him .. Must piss him off so much

[MusicTewns]

Someone should keep an eye on this guy, we don't want another brilliant actor getting too far into the role and losing themselves. I'm not saying that's what happened to the Joker but there was speculation as to whether his inner mental state was slipping into a Joker character he couldn't get out of. Just saying, Heath Ledger was a phenomenal actor with wife and kids, how did he die so easily and so simply?

[lairdriver]

Hardy got in a fist fight with Shia Labeouf - I dont know who won..it was an on set fight. Im pretty sure it was Tom..fucker is tough as nails.

[qwuezalothus]

@lairdriver

Why? What was the conflict about?

[lairdriver]

@qwuezalothus

Well as you may or may not know, Shia is quite the hot head. He picked Bar fights down here in Vancouver for no reasons, and got beaten up once. Then someone rescued him, and then he tried to fight the guy who saved him. I guess he didnt like Tom Hardy talking about all the Cars he owned, I dont know why he would pick a fight with Hardy. Hardy's a tough fucker. Harrison Ford said that Shia was a 'dipshit' - during Indiana Jones.. he should just cool down.

[qwuezalothus]

@lairdriver

So Shia's role's are fitting to his own personality. It figures.

[TalkingWithMeRADIO]

@lairdriver whatever hes a terrible actor

[lairdriver]

@TalkingWithMeRADIO

You think he is a terrible actor?!

[xierotron]

@GinaAmorenJay u seen star trek nemesis?

[Fijianrohit]

Tom Hardy can play villian role. In Warrior he was like a beast in terms of his physics and appeareance.

[desireealicea]

wow, i couldn't stop laughing! love his sense of humor :D

[TheCarlScharnberg]

@desireealicea I know. I laughed at it because I would've done the same thing. Not to be a "douche", but because it's funneh.

[desireealicea]

@TheCarlScharnberg Seriously, the amount of interviews actors go through, it can get a bit boring, tiring, or aggravating if asked the same/ similar questions over and over again. I don't blame Tom for having a little fun with it; plus i've seen some of his other interviews and he naturally is a little silly at times. That's just apart of his personality. No harm done.

[sixamsedna]

this is how you get the ladies guys, watch and learn - a sense of humor.

[Two27Face]

hahah this is funny tom hardy has that kind of humorous personality thats awesome. people he is joking around having a good time, before this question the guy ask there was a whole interview about the movie Warrior. RELAX people hes just being humorous.

[rdrrules]

i just saw warrior and it was FUCKING AWSOME hes gonna do a great bane

[avengerman123]

he was really good in inception and hes gonna kick ass as bane

[Craz3Eddie]

Many of us would be the same way. We would be tired of being asked the same questions regarding a movie we cannot talk about. he is just doing it in a fun and kind way. It's not like he said it angrily. Everyone knows the actors cannot talk about The Datrk Knight Rises yet they bother the poor actors either way.

[CLBOO6]

Hardy is not being a douche or whatever. He is just tired of these people who keep asking him about Bane when he has explained politely in other interviews more than a million times that he is not allowed to talk about The Dark Knight Rises now. I mean, can't these people understand that?

[KnightArkham]

@CLBOO6 awwww poor hardy being told hes so magnetic and charming and everyone loves you and were excited to see your new performance and your on top of the world with the new batman movie awwww poor you awwww must be hard being a millionaire awwww tough interview.........fuck id love to be in his position and i wouldnt act like a cocky swine

[CLBOO6]

@KnightArkham Well, you know, obviously he's not acting like what you said he is. At least he's not saying any bad words to this interviewer like you do.

[KnightArkham]

@CLBOO6 you know you can still act like a twat without using swear words right

[CLBOO6]

@KnightArkham Yes, I agree with that. But anyway, you know, everything just seems more wrong when a celebrity doing it, whether they swear or not. Whatever you think.

[KnightArkham]

@CLBOO6 anyway i love tom hardy and i see now he was just kidding around and wasn't being personal with the interviewer

[qwuezalothus]

@CLBOO6

They have jobs and bosses, women and children.

[jetsetatrophy67]

@CLBOO6 What you don't understand is that the question was simply are you ready to be the mega star of the summer with batman. It wasn't a question about the plot or anything that he can't answer

[CLBOO6]

@jetsetatrophy67 Well, he did answer the question at the end.

[lamentesse]

no it won't because Tom Hardy is ALREADY a household name ;)

[dissention117]

Every single interview that Hardy is doing for this film alaways turns into the interviewer's attempt to get Batman news from him. Hardy can't say anything about the film and I'm sure he's sick of telling people that, plus the interviewers know he can't say anything yet they push anyway. So I'm sure Hardy can be forgiven for having some fun when he knows the question is coming up.

[Carcrafter7]

The guy was just having some fun. He answered the question.

[Spore6001]

I dunno man. If appearing in a Batman film as the villain doesn't make you a house hold name i don't know what will.

[phskeithatkinson]

Watch the whole interview, Tom was just being playful, having a laugh. That's just the kind of person he is, energetic and full of life. If you think he's a douche, you don't really know too much about him.

[elcap22]

@phskeithatkinson didn't he used to be an alcoholic and cocaine addict?

[phskeithatkinson]

@elcap22 Yes, he did used to be an addict! Tom has been sober for like ten years, and he works for charitable events for the homeless now and kids who need a little nudge to get on the right path.

[elcap22]

@phskeithatkinson yes that's good, i don't think he's a douche, we all make mistakes, he's a decent actor and a nice enough guy

i think he will give a solid performance in TDKR, i seriously doubt he'll top heath ledger's performance in TDK

[phskeithatkinson]

@elcap22 You're exactly right, I agree with you! If you've seen any of Tom's work, you'll know that he is a superb actor! What Heath did with the Joker was history-making, and I don't think anyone in the new installment of the series would aim to top him, cause that'd just be impossible, lol!

[VickTheRipper]

he was just trying to impress Hieatt, but he was coming across as a giant douche in the process

[Curseco]

What a negative person. "No, no no no no. no. no. no."
