For his latest, Hardy is taking on the persona of famous mobster Al Capone, a role he was seemingly placed on this earth specifically to play, and he looks pretty darn frightening.
Fonzo doesn’t yet have a release date, but with filming clearly underway, that announcement can’t be too far off.
Tom Hardy is one of those actors who is ready and willing to get as weird and scary as his roles require — and he does tend to pick a lot of weird and scary roles.
Fonzo follows Al Capone at the age of 47, released after a decade of prison and feeling the first effects of dementia clouding his mind, causing past to merge into present as his vivid, traumatic memories obscure what’s real.
