Over the past year, Tom Hardy has become one of the most beloved and bankable movie stars on the planet.
As a result of his brooding good looks and one-of-a-kind screen presence Hardy has gone from starring in critically adored but commercially overlooked indie fare like Bronson to big budget studio tentpoles like Inception, The Dark Knight Rises, and Mad Max: Fury Road.
Of course, even though he’s partying with Leonardo DiCaprio and pulling in seven-figure paychecks these days, Hardy still makes time for his passion projects.
No, we’re not talking about high-brow, challenging films with his favorite directors. We’re talking about lip-syncing to Whitney Houston and posting video of it online.
Yes, for some reason Hardy loves to drop his tough guy persona and rock out to his favorite jams on social media.
We feel like it’s best not to question it. Just let the beautiful hilarity wash over you:
