What we love about Tom Hardy is the fact, yes, he may love to take those blockbuster roles, but he isn’t scared to go for a completely different, not what we would expect, role too and London Road is a prime example of this.
We have a clip on Tom Hardy in London Road, the official trailer, as well as a behind the scenes featurette for you to feast your eyes on, We certainly were surprised to see old Tom singing, what do you think?
Hailed as a remarkable, ground-breaking work during two sell-out runs at the National Theatre, the feature film adaptation of LONDON ROAD reunites the award winning team, with script by Alecky Blythe, music by Adam Cork and directed by Rufus Norris (Broken).
LONDON ROAD documents the events that shook Suffolk in 2006, when the quiet rural town of Ipswich was shattered by the discovery of the bodies of five women. The residents of London Road had struggled for years with frequent soliciting and kerb-crawling on their street. The film follows the community who found themselves at the epicentre of the tragic events. Using their own words set to an innovative musical score, LONDON ROAD tells a moving story of ordinary people coming together during the darkest of experiences.
