New Hi-Res Still Of Bane From The Dark Knight Rises

Featuring in the latest issue of Total Film, previously seen as a scan, a new still of Bane with ‘eyes that will stare into your soul’ from The Dark Knight Rises has surfaced. Along with the still, Tom Hardy also spoke about how it was wearing an uncomfortable mask (which has garnered a lot of criticism) and how he managed to beef up. Check it out below:

On his uncomfortable mask:

“It’s not as bad as you might think. You just put it on. Work out where you drool goes. That’s it. Mask work is good fun. This one wasn’t painful; there was the stunt mask and there was the up-close on for the sexy glam shots.”

On the secret to getting into shape:

“When I started I was about 160-something pounds. When I was done I was 190. You lift weights. You eat. You lift some more weights. You don’t run anywhere because if you do cardio, you drop weight. So it’s really good for heart attacks!”
