Tom Hardy plays British gangsters Ronnie and Reggie Kray in Brian Helgeland's Legend. Here's the new trailer...
Tom Hardy's no secret to playing real-life criminals with a violent streak - in fact, some of his most compelling performances can be found in the 2007 TV drama Stuart: A Life Backwards and Nicolas Winding Refn's knockout movie, Bronson.
In Legend, directed by Brian Helgeland, Hardy gets to stretch his abilities further. He plays the infamous Kray twins, Ronnie and Reggie, a pair of gangsters whose exploits in 60s London made them into celebrities. Each character showcases a different side of the actor's talent: the slick, witty Reggie is the more dapper of the pair, while Ronnie's prone to wild flights of fantasy and horrifying outbursts of violence.
Among the superb cast you'll also find Emily Browning, Colin Morgan, Christopher Eccleston, David Thewlis and Taron Egerton.
