Happy 39th Birthday, Tom Hardy (15.09.1977)

“Style, I think, is panache. Who are you? What did you do today? And what are you worth to me? What do you have to offer the world? How did you spend your time today on this planet? How are you spending your time every second? What are you doing now? Are you alive, or are you somnambulant?”

The characters I’ve played have been mostly violent, and I’m so far from being violent or aggressive. I spend a lot of time watching ‘Fireman Sam’ with my three-year-old son Louis.

“Whatever was the center point of that shot had to be in the center of frame. In the faster cutting that [George Miller] has got your eye won’t have to shift on an Anamorphic frame, won’t have to shift to find the next subject when you’ve only got 1.8 seconds of time to do that. That theory of not having to move your eyes and being able to fast cut and it just goes bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, takes you into it, and the is basically the whole of the film. All we would hear all the time on the coms was George [Miller] saying “PUT THE CROSS-HAIRS ON HER NOSE! PUT THE CROSS-HAIRS ON HER NOSE!” and you put the cross-hairs on Charlize [Theron]’s nose. You didn’t offset to grab any of the information in the background, the camera had to be in the center, it was very disciplined that way, everything is symmetrical.” - John Seale, DoP Symmetry in Mad Max: Fury Road // 2015

NBCUniversal International Studios is teaming up with Tom Hardy and Dean Baker to develop two new TV shows: Trees, based on a science-fiction graphic novel from award-winning comic book writer and New York Times bestselling author Warren Ellis, and Pendulum, an adaptation of Adam Hamdy’s crime thriller.

Trees follows a story set ten years after the arrival of vast alien presences, who stand on the Earth’s surface like trees and do not move or communicate: appearing not to acknowledge human life and society, the series chronicles the silent pressure and strange changes they exert on global communities from China to the Arctic Circle.

“Warren is one of the top names in comics and a best-selling author who has a terrifically subversive perspective on story,” said Tom Coan, SVP of scripted programming at NBCUniversal Int. Studios. “It’s that unique sensibility that sits at the heart of Trees, where he has turned the alien invasion genre on its ear.”

Pendulum, set to be published in the U.S. next year, will be adapted by Hamdy and it will follow the story of an everyman targeted for death by a serial killer.

“It was immediately clear to us that Pendulum’s narrative would appeal to audiences internationally given the book is a thrilling, high-concept ride about the nature of our digitally connected society,” added Coan. “We are thrilled to have Adam on board to adapt the book and look forward to taking the project to buyers.”

Taboo, Hardy Son & Baker’s first show penned by Peaky Blinders’ Steven Knight and starring Hardy, is set to air on BBC and FX in early 2017.
