The actor that Tom Hardy called “God” (Far Out Magazine)

While talking about his favourite actors, Tom Hardy - the star of 'The Dark Knight Rises' and 'Bronson' - named the actor he calls "God". Read here.

So we had to go back and re-shoot the entire scene that I had with him in that, in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.” However, he’ll never forget his experience on the set of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy because it gave him the opportunity to see Gary Oldman in action. While Hardy’s filmography is undoubtedly stacked, one of his major successes was the Cold War spy thriller Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.

Predators review – Tom Hardy cuts out the hard man act for this look ... (The Guardian)

The Taboo actor narrates this conflict-packed wildlife documentary like an old-school thesp. Reading bedtime stories has clearly mellowed him.

In a heart-catching moment, one of the Solaro brothers, a bag of bones that hasn’t eaten for days, falls with a thump to the ground. Not all have starred on TV, but with their numbers falling and nature documentary output increasing, it can only be a matter of time before every one has had its moment in the camera’s crosshairs. When the rains come to the Serengeti, they are followed by the migrating mega-herd, none of which presumably realise that they may soon be the cheetahs’ main course. In a nod to the broader climate crisis, Hardy tells us that drought conditions have made the savannah into a tinder box readily consumed by fire. Two young male cheetahs (think Ron and Reggie Kray) are trying to establish their dominance in a well lush manor in the Serengeti. In future episodes, polar bears, wild dogs, pumas and lions will take centre stage, but here we watch two male cheetahs off as much Tanzanian fauna as they can get their teeth into as Hardy narrates with the crisp enunciation of a post-makeover Eliza Doolittle.

Predators: Tom Hardy narrates new Sky Nature series (HeraldScotland)

It is a new five-part Sky Nature series – narrated by Peaky Blinders star Tom Hardy – which follows five apex predators in their fight for survival in the wild.

The opening episode centres on “a notorious brotherhood of cheetahs” in the Serengeti as they strive to hold their fiercely guarded territory. Next week’s instalment swaps desert climes for the frozen landscapes of Hudson Bay in Canada where a community of polar bears resides. Each episode focuses on a different species around the world: cheetahs in Tanzania, polar bears in Canada, lions in Botswana, pumas in Chile and wild dogs in Zimbabwe.
