From Bane to Venom to Mad Max, Tom Hardy has brought a wide array of beloved characters to life. Just in time for the holidays, the actor is adding an iconic - and unexpected - property to his arsenal. A new trailer has made the rounds online for FX's upcoming adaptation of A Christmas Carol, which Hardy will executive produce and star in. The miniseries will serve as a new adaptation of Charles Dickens' iconic novel, with Hardy playing a currently-undisclosed role. If the first teaser is any indication, it looks to be a period-accurate - but slightly terrifying - take on the legendary tale.
The A Christmas Carol miniseries will star Guy Pearce as Ebenezer Scrooge, Andy Serkis as Ghost of Christmas Past, Stephen Graham as Jacob Marley, Charlotte Riley as Lottie, Joe Alwyn as Bob Cratchit, Vinette Robinson as Mary Crachit, Jason Flemyng as Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, Kayvan Novak as Ali Baba, Lenny Rush as Tiny Tim, and Johnny Harris as Franklin Scrooge.
A Christmas Carol will be written by Steven Knight, who previously wrote on Hardy's other period pieces Peaky Blinders and Taboo. The project is executive-produced by Knight, Hardy, and Ridley Scott, and directed by Nick Murphy.
