Short answer: The latest notable news about Tom Hardy playing twins centers on his 2015 film Legend, where he portrayed both Ronnie and Reggie Kray. There hasn’t been a widely reported modern project announced recently that updates this twin-roles concept in a new release.
Context and highlights
- Legend (2015) features Tom Hardy in a dual role as the Kray twins, Ronnie and Reggie, a performance that drew significant attention for him to “play twins” in one film. This is the most prominent recent example tying Hardy to a twin-roles project.[2][3]
- Trailers and press around Legend emphasized Hardy’s challenge and ambition in portraying two characters with distinct personalities while sharing screen time, which became a defining moment in his career related to twin performances.[3][4]
