    Apparently others have had the same idea.

    Sorry, no Brits need apply for this one.

    I do believe Hardy could convincingly play just about anyone or anything he wants to, though. The man is a human chameleon.

    Now that Daniel Day Lewis is retired I'm hard pressed to find a better character actor than Tom Hardy.

    Edward Norton is a contender.

    Hard to watch Primal Fear, American History X and Death to Smoochy and believe you're watching the same actor.

    Whoops, I think we've run Perianne's Western s thread off the rails here. Getting back on track...
