Tom Hardy is known for several remarkable performances in his career, whether they are studio blockbusters like Inception, Mad Max: Fury Road or The Dark Knight Rises or indie movies like Locke. He can best be characterised as a freak of an actor — as in his craft and style, traditionally speaking, is not the best of the lot.
But he does a few things to make whatever character he is playing way more interesting than it has any right to be.
After playing Bane, his portrayal of Marvel anti-hero Venom on Sony Pictures’ 2018 movie of the same name became his second comic-book role. And dare we say it was because of him and his performance alone the movie braved terrible reviews to become one of the biggest worldwide successes of the year at the box office.
