I am a huge fan of Tom Hardy. Personally I think his best role was Tommy Riorden in Warrior but I'm biased. There's no denying this guy's talent or his diversity. You don't do Bane, Mad Max (upcoming), an MMA fighter, a bootlegger, a Romulan, and England's most violent inmate without having talent.
You may have to add the role of iconic singer to Hardy's resume very soon.
According to "HitFix" Tom Hardy may play the role of musician Sir Elton John in the upcoming film Rocketman, based on a script from Lee Hall (Billy Elliot). Michael Gracey is already attached to direct. The story will be:
"told in a non-linear and hyper-visual manner that will transport people through the many intense experiences, some wonderful, some not, that helped define Elton as an artist, musician and man."
A few months ago I reported that Justin Timberlake was circling this project but apparently he's fallen off the radar. It's important to note that the part hasn't officially been offered to Hardy and rumors also have Ben Foster attached to the role. More updates on this story as it becomes available.
