See The Trailer for Your Boyfriend Tom Hardy's New Movie, Locke

Via TotalFilm, so far there aren’t too many details on the specifics of the film (Tom Hardy drives a car in a sweater?????). But who cares! BECAUSE TOM HARDY:

Worth catching for Hardy’s Welsh accent alone, the trailer
gives away little in terms of plot, but it looks like a tantalising
thriller nonetheless, described in the official synopsis as a
‘tension-fuelled 90-minute race against time’. If all trailers could be
this thrilling without the need for spoilers, there would a lot more
happy cinemagoers out there…

Indie Wire has some more info on the film, which debuted at the Venice Film Festival last year:

Tom Hardy leads the way — and is the only one on screen — in “Locke,”
a drama/thriller about a regular working stiff named Ivan Locke trying
to keep his life together over one drive, while talking to the people in
his life — voiced by Olivia Colman, Ruth Wilson and Andrew Scott — over the phone. And the result is very, very good movie that does a lot with very little. “It’s
a very complete portrait of a man — one who can be commanding, weak,
funny, loving, cold, single-minded, selfless and selfish — and by the
end of the drive you feel like you’ve known Ivan for years,” we wrote in
our review out of Venice.

I’m getting a Cosmopolis meets Phone Booth meets Drive Angry vibe here. If the brag-y title cards flashing intermittently throughout the trailer are any indication, the film not only has a great pedigree (from the writer of Eastern Promises) it’s also getting some good reviews. So bravo, Tom Hardy! Now, what time are you coming over so I can chill the champagne and we can cuddle on my couch discussing your “film work?”
