But in the new Attitude magazine, the 25-year-old is looking more devilish.

In the accompanying article, Hardy draws a connection between mutants and LBT people.

“I remember [director Bryan Singer] saying that was one of the attractions of doing the first X-Men film,” he recalls.

“He felt it was something that could relate to those movement and to that kid at school who doesn’t feel like he belongs, doesn’t feel like a part of society. Who feels like an outcast, or feeling like they’re not a part of society.”

Apocalypse is Hardy’s feature film debut, and he calls Singer a “really cool and creative guy … He’s visionary in many ways.”
