Christopher Nolan's Upcoming Remake Has the Perfect Lead Role for Tom Hardy - ScreenRant

Tom Hardy's potential casting as the lead in Christopher Nolan's upcoming remake of 'The Prisoner' signifies a much-anticipated partnership between the two. Given Hardy's track record of portraying morally intricate characters, he seems ideally suited to embody the enigmatic Number Six in this retelling of the cult classic series.

THE PRISONER was a once-in-a-lifetime project and it's folly to attempt another telling, even with Chris Nolan at the helm. Tom Hardy stepping in for Patrick McGoohan makes about as much sense as casting Vince Vaughn to play Norman Bates.

[@mqultra5150]

Imagine the Prisoner as a sequel to Tenet with John David Washington as #6 and Tom Hardy as #2😮

[@thobat14]

What?! Nolan’s next project what are you guys talking about he hasn’t said anything about his next film!

[@DaveMcIroy]

English, please!

[@KlausPieslingerFTW]

Six of one, half a dozen of the other. Be seeing you.

[@Theonetruewonderfly]

I'm flashing back to watching this series on the Sci-Fi Channel in the mid 90's. Good times.

[@alm2187]

Ha! Thought the pink lollipop was a ping pong paddle. 🏓

[@Sojuuk]

The Golden Age of Video!

[@MACTRUQUE]

No way- Cillian Murphy would be much better AS McGoohan

[@DaveMcIroy]

I loaded that show some time ago, but didn't watch it yet.

[@indigohammer5732]

This tedious speculation, masquerading as “content” is a criminal waste of photons and electricity.

[@surfdocer103]

Alfie?

[@AllMediaReviewsPodcast]

Richard Armitage would have been great in the Patrick McGoohan role 10 years ago.
Hardy honestly I don't picture as well as Armitage would have. Although I suppose he may be better than Jim Caviezel was in the 2009 remake.

[@johnnypadilla7400]

So all this is just speculation?

[@Endoe.McKronic]

So watch the original TV show?? CHECK!

[@dustinneely]

You can watch it on UA-cam

[@trex2957]

Say what you will... It will be better than Jean Claude Van Dammes remake, Double Team.

[@sabinemorgner24]

Tom Hardy etc, the same faces again and again. Has anyone already noticed that the audience is more out of the story than on the „starpower “. See argyll etc. At least I’m tired of it.

[@NipItInTheBud100]

Am I the only one who thinks Tom Hardy is way overrated? I just can’t stand that high pitched voice of his. Plus his acting stinks!

[@morgane915]

First comment 😍😍

[@krisbittner803]

Second comment ❤

[@BassedInVegas]

Nolan is such a great director, unfortunately The Prisoner TV series was a total bore fest.
If your going to remake something at least do a remake of something that didn’t suck.

[@andrewpalmeri7469]

Am I the only one that doesn’t want this? I’m sick of spy movies, this just sounds like a bond film. Lets get something completely fresh

[@TEMINIX]

You are not but you are missing out by not having seen this show.

[@alm2187]

British spy, yes. Prisoner is REALLY DIFFERENT from Bond, though.
Twin Peaks isn't too much like Burn Notice. Men In Black isn't too much like X-Files. The Prisoner isn't too much like Bond. (although Nolan directing Bond would make for something fresh and new!)

[@Theonetruewonderfly]

The series was more "Twilight Zone" than James Bond.

[@JosefFerguson]

Not even remotely like Bond.

[@trex2957]

The Prisoner wasn't a Bond film. It was a science fiction acid trip allegory vanity project cluster $#@&.

[@D1210]

No Nolan. ffs unique visions is all we have left

[@Rab_Daddy]

Tom Hardy? No!

[@craigdorsey8624]

I want The Prisoner, but not with Tom Hardy.
