TDKR's Tom Hardy Explains His "Starbucks" Comment

You might remember back at SDCC Hardy caused a bit of a stir when he compared working on The Dark Knight Rises to working at Starbucks. He has now cleared up the misunderstanding and explained himself..

When Hardy mentioned TDKR and Starbucks in the same sentence some people immediately pounced, but I think most reasonable minded folk understood what he was trying to say. Granted he might have chosen his words more carefully. Anyway the self-described "sensitive" actor has explained his comments to Variety, while also revealing that he reads comics. And cries. I'm not sure if he means in that order..



"I'm really sorry if anyone misunderstood what I said about comparing working for a huge franchise to being like working for Starbucks. I didn't mean it like that. I mean, it could have been British Airways. It could have been Virgin, it could have been any huge company."

"I'm human and I do read things and I get hurt. My friends say "Don't read anything , just ignore it". But I do. And I read Comics. And I cry."


Filming continues on Christopher Nolan's third and final Bat-flick in which Tom Hardy plays Bane. We haven't had any set pics in, ohhh, about an hour so expect some very soon.
