One of the most well-known Tom Hardy physical transformations is his full-bloated end in Bronson (2008) and his somewhat alarming, muscular bulk in The Dark Knight Rises (2012). In preparation for Bronson, Hardy ballooned up to a massive size by eating gigantic amounts of protein and carbs and undertaking extreme training. He followed that up with a role as Bane in The Dark Knight Rises; again, he was fully developed and almost unrecognizable as the muscularly massive form of Bane. His transformation into Bane also came with harsh neck and trap workouts, making him look menacingly ferocious.
