What’s better than one Tom Hardy? Two, of course! In the trailer for upcoming mobster movie Legend, the Max Max star finds himself among the ranks of Leonardo DiCaprio, Nicolas Cage, and a host of other twin-playing actors as he takes on the dual role of Mafioso brothers Reggie and Ronnie Kray.
The newly released trailer for the film, written and directed by Brian Helgeland (L.A. Confidential), follows the the infamous Kray brothers as they attempt to transform ’60s London into “the Las Vegas of Europe.” The only problem with their plan is that Ronnie, the muscle of the operation, is a bit eccentric—or, as one character describes, “a violent, paranoid schizophrenic.”
Hence, shenanigans ensue, the American mafia gets involved, the local law enforcement catches on, and Tom Hardy beats the crap out of himself. Not to mention, it’s all based on a true story.
Along with the double helping of Tom Hardy, Emily Browning, Taron Egerton, and Colin Morgan are set to get tangled in the Kray brothers’ web.
Legend is set to be released October 2.
