Tom Hardy in "Sergeant Slaughter, My Big Brother" & "Bronson"

 Edward Thomas "Tom" Hardy (born 15 September 1977) is an English actor. Some of his most notable film roles were in Star Trek: Nemesis, RocknRolla, Bronson, Warrior, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, This Means War, The Dark Knight Rises, and Inception, the critically acclaimed film for which he won the BAFTA Rising Star Award.


 His television roles include the BBC mini-series The Virgin Queen, ITV's Wuthering Heights, in which he played Heathcliff, Stuart: A Life Backwards, and Martina Cole's The Take. In 2012, he appeared as Bane in Christopher Nolan's film The Dark Knight Rises, and as Forrest Bondurant in John Hillcoat's crime thriller film Lawless. In 2014, he will star as Max Rockatansky in Mad Max: Fury Road, the fourth installment of the Mad Max franchise.




 On this side of the pond, Tom Hardy is primarily known for his role in Inception, or being that guy whose embarrassing MySpace photos leaked all over the internet. Of course, he’s about to become a much bigger deal, after getting cast in Christopher Nolan‘s Batman flick as Bane.


 When this guy’s super famous, you’ll be able to say you've seen his penis. And he’s made sure of this by getting naked onscreen a lot. Most recently, he flashed his peen in the short film Sergeant Slaughter, My Big Brother, though you can also catch a glimpse of his goods in Bronson. We really hope he’s a grower. Not that we’re size queens or anything.


 Sergeant Slaughter, My Big Brother



Storyline
Dan's (Tom Hardy) decision to run away and join the French Foreign Legion has far reaching implications for his younger brother, Keith.











Bronson is a 2008 British fictionalized biographical psychological drama film co-written and directed by Nicolas Winding Refn and starring Tom Hardy. The film follows the life of notorious prisoner Michael Gordon Peterson, who was renamed Charles Bronson by his fight promoter. Born into a respectable middle-class family, Peterson would nevertheless become one of the United Kingdom's most dangerous criminals, and is known for having spent almost his entire adult life in solitary confinement. Bronson is narrated with humor, blurring the line between comedy and horror.


Storyline
In 1974, a hot-headed 19 year old named Michael Peterson decided he wanted to make a name for himself and so, with a homemade sawn-off shotgun and a head full of dreams he attempted to rob a post office. Swiftly apprehended and originally sentenced to 7 years in jail, Peterson has subsequently been behind bars for 34 years, 30 of which have been spent in solitary confinement. During that time, Michael Petersen (Tom Hardy), the boy, faded away and 'Charles Bronson,' his superstar alter ego, took center stage. Inside the mind of Bronson - a scathing indictment of celebrity culture.
