Tom Hardy Reviews, Interviews & More
During last month’s 2012 MTV Movie Awards, Christopher Nolan, Christian Bale, Gary Oldman, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt appeared in order to debut new footage from the insanely anticipated The Dark Knight Rises. Unfortunately the footage was pulled offline almost as quickly as it appeared online—meaning that if you didn’t subject yourself to the horrors of...
When you hear that a classic and/or cult film franchise like the Mad Max series will be rebooted as an all-new trilogy, it’s sure to make you more than a little nervous. Then you find out it’s in 3D, and you go even more nuts. Then you find that the director, writer and creator of the original trilogy (George Miller) is returning to write and...
Just one month out from the official release of The Dark Knight Rises, one thing fans weren’t expecting was a brand new full-length trailer for the film. After all, we received what was supposed to be the “final” Dark Knight Rises trailer back in early May. So, let’s just consider ourselves lucky, and bask in Nokia’s new trailer for The Dark Knight...
As the countdown to the July 20 premiere of The Dark Knight Rises continues, the onslaught of semi-spoilery Dark Knight Rises TV spots marches onward. Continuing the trend of revealing more and more of the film via TV spots rather than trailers, the newest TV spot features all-new footage of “The Bat” (essentially, the Bat-Plane), Anne Hathway’s Selina Kyle/Catwoman,...
As we inch ever closer to the July 20th release date of The Dark Knight Rises (and our inner fanboys continue to riot), we’ll take any bit of TDKR news that we can get our greedy hands on—including the dark, funereal soundtrack. Or, rather, the first 30 seconds to every song on said soundtrack.
The marketing campaign for The Dark Knight Rises has certainly been a fascinating one, as it’s seemingly broken all the traditional rules—first, the trailers were ambiguous and revealed very little (imagine that—a modern trailer that doesn’t spoil the film); second, the theatrical poster was, well, crap; third, the TV spots, normally 30 second bits of recycled trailer footage,...
Despite being one of the most anticipated action films of, well, ever, The Dark Knight Rises’ print ad campaign seems to be taking a decidedly laid back route, in terms of quality. First, we had the Wal-Mart quality photoshopped horror of the final theatrical poster, now we have six new banners that look like they were pieced together in about 10 minutes each. One would think...
The TV spot—normally they’re just brutally edited ‘Greatest Hits’ versions of a film’s trailer, 30 seconds of explosions and one-liners… Unless, of course, it’s a Dark Knight Rises TV spot, in which case you get a bevy of all new footage. That’s right: forgoing the usual route of offering up the best of their previous trailers, The Dark Knight Rises’ two...
So the latest poster for The Dark Knight Rises didn't really impress. But Warner Brothers and Christopher Nolan aren't done hitting you with new posters - we've got six additional posters to fill cinema lobbies and fanboys' bedrooms with images of Christian Bale as Batman, Anne Hathaway as Catwoman and Tom Hardy as Bane.
This week brings one of the best films of last year (from the Criterion Collection, no less) some of the bigger disappointments of of 2012 so far, one of the best TV shows going today, and a collection of the Lethal Weapon films. Not a bad week for DVD and Blu-ray. Check it out…
Though it premiered at the Cannes festival to modestly positive reviews, we're still hungry to see Tom Hillcoat's Lawless - which stars Tom Hardy, Shia LaBeouf, Jessica Chastain and Guy Pearce - something fierce. The film doesn't come out theatrically until August, so we'll have to make due with this new clip from Hulu.
Sponsored by IMAX and Mountain Dew (apparently people still drink that?), Warner Bros. is launching a unique The Dark Knight Rises promotional tour—they’re taking The Tumbler (a.k.a., the Batmobile) and the Bat-Pod (a.k.a., Batman’s motorcycle) on a cross-country tour of the United States. Want to completely geek out and touch Batman’s ride? Well, Bat-nerds,...
Theoretically, McG's This Means War is a perfect twist on the romantic comedy. You've often got possible lovers fighting over one person, so why not have them be people who can actually fight? Reese Witherspoon [interview] stars as the girl stuck between two deep cover operatives (Tom Hardy, Chris Pine) in this surprisingly unpleasant riff on the cinematic...
In This Means War, Chris Pine and Tom Hardy fight over Reese Witherspoon. But for their big interview, it appears that Tom Hardy won, as Pine was called to the set of Star Trek 2. In his absence we had two of the three leads, comic relief Chelsea Handler, and the always eager to please director McG to talk about the film. Check it out…
As we wait impatiently for the new Batman film The Dark Knight Rises, Entertainment Weekly has a cover story on the film - which is still deep in post-production - and Christopher Nolan is repeating what has been the modus operandi with the movie since day one: This is his last Batman film no if's, and's or huge paychecks. Check out a quote from Christopher...
For those who've been following The Dark Knight Rises and the Bane controversy, there's been back and forth recently about changing audio to make Tom Hardy's character slightly more understandable. Some said the audio was remixed, while recently the studio has said nothing was touched. Until the film comes out, it's likely this will be a big question about the film....
This weekend, Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol premiered the opening sequence of Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises, and offered the film's theatrical trailer. Currently the opening sequence is still only in certain Imax theaters, but the trailer is now online, and offers glimpses at new cast members Anne Hathaway, Tom Hardy, and...
Well, this should whip the fanboys into a frenzy—last night in Los Angeles, Warner Bros. and Christopher Nolan screened the first eight minutes of the wildly anticipated The Dark Knight Rises to an audience of entertainment press. I’ll keep the spoilers at bay until after the jump, but suffice to say, the character of Bane is given a highly memorable entrance. ...
Shaping up to be the most anticipated film of 2012, The Dark Knight Rises has been shrouded in secrecy (that is, until last week, when Christopher Nolan finally let slip a few details about the film). What do we know about the film? Well, it takes place eight years after The Dark Knight, and features Bane and...
The premise of This Means War is stupidly irresistable. Chris Pine and Tom Hardy play secret agents. Both end up dating Reese Witherspoon. She seems to be a normal girl, but their interest gets so heightened that they use their spy tools on each other. Director McG may have a real winner on his hands. Check out the trailer...
