Tom Hardy Checks Out “Prometheus” UK Premiere

Meanwhile, Tom’s “The Dark Knight Rises” cohort Christian Bale recently sang his praises after having a great time working with him.

Bale gushed, ''Tom is phenomenal. He's an extraordinary actor. If I were a director I would want Tom to be in my movies. He knows his s**t. But it's a funny distance that you have in these movies, literally, by being cocooned by a cowl. I don't truly feel like I've worked with Gary (Oldman), even though we've done three movies together. And likewise with Tom, we're both behind these masks. He's feeling the isolation as well. It's a strange feeling. So we agreed after this we'd like to work with each other on something one day!''
