The Evolution of Tom Hardy: From ‘Band of Brothers’ to ‘Venom’ (Photos)

Tom Hardy has done it all. He’s played witty rogues, brutal villains, brooding heroes, and now it’s time for the U.S. to see him as the vengeful James Delaney on “Taboo.” Here’s how Hardy got here.

Hardy’s first big role came in 2001 on the HBO miniseries “Band of Brothers” as Pvt. John Janovec, a replacement soldier whose first scene features him getting caught having sex with a German woman by his commanding officer.
