Quote

I'm into parlor dramas. I'm into theatre. I'm trained for the stage. I trained to do Chekhov and Shakespeare, I was trained for the stage.

I hate publicists and publicity. But I love the people.
Tom Hardy
Image
I have a very busy head. I have inside voices that I have learned to contain.

I think online dating is a way of procuring people. Like Facebook and Myspace, it's the way that people connect now and procure small children and sometimes dodgy relationships. I don't think it's very healthy.

The problem with prime beef is that there are so many people out there selling offal. So you don't know when you're going eat a shitty gangster movie. Because everybody knows there's good stuff to be involved in.
Tom Hardy
Image
I think it's important that you always transform if you can. That's what I was trained to do. You try and hide yourself as much as you can - that's the key to longevity.

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?

Online dating is cool but I think Myspace and Facebook is a little bit off key.

The lack of carbohydrates can make you a little crazy.

I wanted my dad to be proud of me, and I fell into acting because there wasn't anything else I could do, and in it I found a discipline that I wanted to keep coming back to, that I love and I learn about every day.

There's an abundance of exposure when you start working in American films. Inevitably you become a brand and that has to be controlled.

I'm from a nice, suburban, middle-class family, but my tattoos remind me where I've been.
Tom Hardy
Image
Being an only child, I didn't have any other family but my mom and dad really, since the rest of my family lived quite far away from London.

As actors, we have the opportunity to work with many directors. Directors only work with themselves and other actors. They never know what it is like to work with another director. So that relationship that one has with a director is entirely always the king.

Every time you need protein, get yourself a boiled egg in. But your main meals would be chicken, or hummus, or white fish. You can lose about a pound a day. But you can do this stuff over a period of time, and you can have your happy days. It's about motivation and it has to be something that's realistic for you to keep up.

My job is to show and tell. If I get better at showing and telling then presumably I get hired more.

Image
Maybe it's a little ambitious of me to presume that no matter how big the film is, that I can always go down to the shop to buy a pint of milk.

The Long Red Road is a story about alcoholism and dysfunction and tragic tale of a man who's trying to drink himself to death on an Indian reservation in Dakota. It was written for me, so it's something I would love to do.

I'm a nice middle class public schoolboy who underachieved and wasn't going anywhere fast. I didn't get any GCSEs or A-levels. But everyone was like: Please, will you do something? And I was thinking: Well, I kind of like the idea of joining the French Foreign Legion.

t's much less daunting once you've put your foot on the road to it. I'm a notorious couch potato and I don't like exercise. Half an hour of physical exercise, like jogging or fast walking a day is a start.

I'm an armchair psychologist, I suppose, and I like to kind of sit around and guess and pretend I know what's going on.
