Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy Set Photos Have A Tattooed Tom Hardy

Thanks to the incredible box office success of Inception versus Tom Hardy's other films, people may have a one-dimensional view of the actor. In that film, of course, Hardy plays Eames, the clean-cut, suit wearing forger with a suave level that rivals James Bond. Well, those folks need to prepare for a different side of Tom Hardy in Tomas Alfredson's Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy.

JustJared has posted some new photos from the set of the new spy film and it would appear that Hardy's character is a bit closer to the title character in Nicolas Winding Refn's Bronson than anything in Christopher Nolan's epic dream film. Ladies, check out the images to enjoy the sight of a shirtless Tom Hardy; gentlemen, appreciate how badass he looks and prepare for one hell of a British spy film.

I've put in three of the pictures below, but for the rest of the gallery head on over to JustJared.
