After
scheduling conflicts with director Alejandro
González Iñárritu's The Revenant made him drop out of David Ayer's
Suicide Squad, Tom Hardy is still thinking about doing another movie based on a
comic book.
Speaking to Collider, Hardy revealed
that he's still keen on playing a superhero, particularly Marvel's The
Punisher.
Collider: I heard Warner Bros. has a few more
superhero movies, maybe one or two that they’re developing [Laughs].
HARDY: I want The
Punisher… I want The
Punisher, or Splinter
Cell, I want something…I don’t know what I want.
You as Punisher could be very interesting.
HARDY: I’m not big enough to be The Punisher, I’m 5’9”
[Laughs].
But I actually think that adds to the character.
HARDY: Frank Castle, I would love it. Is that him,
isn’t it?
Yeah.
It’s Frank Castle.
Though at this point it would seem unlikely that
Marvel would put the darker hero on the big screen, Daredevil's recent success
on Netflix opened some doors for this type of film or series.
As for the long gestating adaptation of the
Splinter Cell video game, which Hardy is signed for, it recently lost its
director Doug Liman, and according to the actor the draft is currently being
worked on.
