#MOVIE LEGEND TOM HARDY FULL#
She always describes Tom like a very talented actor, generous person, full of energy and one that really cares about what he’s doing like nobody she has met before. In some interviews Emily said it was easy for her to connect to the fragile character but not so much to realize that she was going to be on set with Tom Hardy.Īnd, after being intimidated by his figure, she felt really at ease working with him.
#MOVIE LEGEND TOM HARDY MOVIE#
Her face is perfect for this role: she seems to be born in the ’60, and her make-up and dresses in the movie are a perfect transpositions of those years. We won’t spoiler anything, we’ll only tell you that you’ll feel immediately a sense of Nostalgia of the 1960s.Īnd the plot changes when Reggie meets Frances, his wife-to-be.įrances, portrayed by Emily Browning, is a fragile woman with a loud voice that no one wants to listen. Easy, no?īut at the end the actor was very pleased: “ That’s a f*cking result!”. So, at the end of a long discussion Helgeland said: “Ok, I’ll give you Ronnie if you give me Reggie”. In fact, he had a little argument with the Director Brian Helgeland: Tom wanted to play only Ronnie but the Director was sure he could play both. His first thought was: “It’s gonna be rubbish!”.
He told to the media that technically this was for him the hardest role to play.Īt the beginning, he was really concerned about playing two characters in the same movie. Tom Hardy, the newly Oscar nominee, who plays both Reggie and Ronnie, is perfect: he puts the same commitment and dedication for both parts. The plot is a continuous combination of violence and sarcasm. Helgeland stopped by Deadline/Awardsline studio at TIFF where he discussed the film and how Hardy got lost in the parts.The movie ‘ Legend‘ tells the story of two identical twin gangsters Reggie and Ronnie Kray, two of the most notorious criminals in British history and their crime empire in the East End of London during the 1960s. Legend recently opened in the United Kingdom where it made close to $8M, cracking all sorts of September records there. Directed by Brian Helgeland, Legend is a co-production with Studiocanal, Working Title Films and Crook Creek Pictures. Following its limited play, Legend will expand to additional U.S. Not to mention, a platform roll out will allow more audiences to find Legend and for word of mouth to build it’s a different kind of gangster epic (very British in fact), one which could play strong into awards season, in particular for Hardy as best actor. November 20 boasts fewer male-demo pics, such as The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 and STX’s The Secret in Their Eyes.
This is not a slap in the face to the film, in fact it’s a better springboard for Legend. The original October 2 release was bulked up with too many guy pics, read 20th Century Fox’s The Martian and Sony’s Imax-fueled The Walk. After scoring cheers at its Toronto International Film Festival premiere, Universal’s Legendstarring Tom Hardy as British gangster twins Reggie and Ronnie Kray is moving off its October 2 release date to Friday, November 20 where it will open in New York and Los Angeles.
