Tom Hardy Is Being Sought To Play The Villain In X-Men: Apocalypse!

Unlike Bane, we TOTALLY cared about Tom Hardy before he put on the mask!

After playing the villain in The Dark Knight Rises, Tom is now reportedly being sought out to play another comic book baddie!
Apparently, X-Men‘s director Bryan Singer wants Tom to play the part of En Sabah Nur in the upcoming Apocalypse sequel.
In the X-Men comics, En Sabah Nur was born 5,000 years ago in Akkadia, and was probably the first human born with X-gene!
Of course, later En Sabah Nur (aka “The First One”) becomes the villain Apocalypse!
We hope Tom gratefully accepts this precious part!
