Tom Hardy

Brit actor Tom Hardy is arguably the sexiest man alive.

An unconventional actor with the rare ability to completely transform himself - you would think this would be standard for actors but is a much rarer gift than just 'acting' - Tom Hardy can be anything from utterly terrifying to extraordinarily beautiful, from gimpy to physically over-bearing.

I know many of us have fond memories of his fine work for Kleenex.

Anyway, he appears in cerebral new blockbuster Inception. He will next be seen in Warrior (October 2010), in which he plays the estranged youngest son of an alcoholic former boxer (Nick Nolte) who returns home, where he’s trained by his father for competition in a mixed martial arts tournament — a path that puts him on a collision corner with his older brother (Australian actor Joel Edgerton). This sounds dreadful but the fight scenes look hot [below].

Tom has also announced (Jonathan Ross Show in June 2010) that he will be taking on potty-mouthed racist Mel Gibson's iconic role in a re-make of Mad Max.
