| Tom Hardy to Play Al Capone? What You Think? |
Hardy will play the infamous gangster after he has finished
shooting Mad Max: Fury Road.
He told Daily Mail: "I’ve been working with Warner
Bros, watching their gangster films — the ones with James Cagney, Humphrey
Bogart and Edward G. Robinson," naming The Petrified Forest, The Public
Enemy and Little Caesar as examples.
"It’s interesting to get them, and a bit of Capone,
into the bloodstream… The idea isn’t to remake those films but to get a flavour
of them as we explore Capone’s career as a racketeer."
On the status of the movie (which is set to be directed by
Harry Potter's David Yates), Hardy added: "The idea at the moment is of
doing a trilogy of films, but nothing is set. Everyone is just talking and
exploring."
Tom Hardy will next be seen in This Means War, before
appearing as Bane in The Dark Knight Rises.
