Tom Hardy Is Cooking Up Another DC Adaptation At Warner Bros.

The Mad Max: Fury Road actor is working on adapting a DC property. What is it? For now, you'll have to guess, but you can start with "psychological [frick]fest."

Tom Hardy recently was forced to fall out of Suicide Squad, following news that The Revenant's production schedule expanded extensively. But the actor, whose production company is based out of Warner Bros., revealed to Collider that he is working on another adaptation with DC Comics. He's rather vague about it, but drops some hints as to what it is.

 I actually got something cooking with Warner Bros. which is also a comic book, it’s a DC thing which is kind of… It’s really good actually, it contains elements of all kinds of stuff. From Ocean’s Eleven, to Batman, you can get all the wrappers out and it would be a big, really cool, Technicolor, Pulp Fiction…It’s a psychological [frick]fest, it’s absolutely awesome. It’s as if you would take Transmetropolitan and make it happen, but it’s not that out there it’s something which is much more real world. It could be like Heat, it could be [frick]ing awesome... try and guess.

He goes on to mention that it's not a movie... but it might be a TV series and a movie.
 

It’s real estate, it’s PRIME real estate which is sitting there right under everybody’s nose that no one’s really thought about yet and it goes TV and movie, it’s awesome. I can’t believe that nobody has even –I know they thought of it but no one has actually blown life into it yet.


Any guesses?

After thinking about it, Wesley Dodds Sandman fits in perfectly with Hardy's description.

My money's on John Constantine or the Question.

Like the idea of Grifter though, that character is getting more publicity in the New 52.

So, not a movie, but something that would exist across TV and film, and blends Ocean's Eleven, Batman, and Pulp Fiction...

nope. not a clue.

Seriously though, I would love an Ennis Hitman series on Netflix or HBO as part of the DCCU.
