Bronson is based on the real-life story of a violent London criminal who spent almost his entire life in solitary confinement. During this time, his own personality is supplanted by his alter ego, Charles Bronson. He’s played by Tom Hardy who is almost unrecognizable beneath Bronson’s handle bar mustache and mountainous muscles as the kid who played Captain Picard’s clone in Star Trek: Nemesis.

We have four, brand new, exclusive images from the film below. All featuring the aforementioned violent criminal and sometimes bare knuckle boxer. My favorite image is the first, in which Bronson seems to be flexing his muscles before enjoying a proper cup of tea. Gotta love the British.
