First Dark Knight Rises Image Reveals Monstrous Tom Hardy as Bane

The photo itself is not really very impressive, is it?

Gotta say, i'm really excited for this, he kind of reminds me of Hannibal Lecter on steriods in this photo. Cant wait to see him kick Batman into next week.

Huh. Looks like a small-time body-builder wearing a gimp mask. I'm not sold yet...

Do like! I don't remember him doing any accents in past roles so it remains to be seen if they'll keep the 'Pena Duro prisoner' part of his character or jettison it as making him less intimidating than required. And a lot of intimidation will be required to be a true Bane and make everyone forget about the previous one forever.

Hmm interesting. I'm liking the idea of using Bane because he is...awesome

Will be interesting to see how they will do Bane
