Tom Hardy was on The Jonathan Ross Show this past weekend and talked about his experience working on The Dark Knight Rises. Ross asked Hardy to explain why Bane needs to wear the mask, but of course, Hardy refused to answer. Hardy went on to explain the first time he met Christian Bale, and how intimidating he looked in the Batsuit. It’s a fun interview, check it out! (Cinema, The Dark Knight Rises, Tom Hardy)
