Tom Hardy is sitting opposite me in a Los Angeles hotel suite, which is a minor miracle considering what he has to go through to be allowed into the United States.

In order to obtain a visa to work in Hollywood, the talented British actor, whom critics are comparing to a young Marlon Brando, has to present himself to the US Embassy in London to assure the authorities he regrets his past behaviour and is now reformed.

Tom Hardy has taken the actorly objective of self-transformation pretty literally. He lost weight to portray a homeless man, bulked up to play a prisoner and later an MMA fighter, looked practically diminutive in Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy and again put on mass to be the baddie in this summer’s The Dark Knight Rises. (“I doubt I will be doing that for my whole life,” he says. “It won’t be very healthy.”) For This Means War, his first romantic comedy, the 34-year-old Englishman says he underwent a different kind of change: playing someone who looks and sounds like he does. Hardy and Chris Pine star as CIA operatives caught in a love triangle with Reese Witherspoon.

As you now, Tom has been very active in a couple of charities and we’ve posted about his commitment to FLACK in the past. Now he is set off across Siberia to collect more for his projects…

I’ve been supporting FLACK since it first started and now I’m about to set off to drive across Siberia to raise money for three charities I care about including, of course, FLACK!

I’ll be wearing my very special FLACK HAT to keep me warm – there’s only one like it in the world!

Last year many of my fans helped to keep FLACK going with an amazing response to their urgent fundraising appeal, I’m so grateful for your support. FLACK’s immediate future is now secure for the next few months but they still need my help to ensure that their inspirational work with homeless people can continue for as long as it’s needed.

I’m incredibly proud to be patron of FLACK which is a social enterprise and registered charity based in Cambridge that benefits people who are or have been homeless. It’s unique in that everyone – homeless, housed, staff, volunteer, service user – pulls together to write and produce a comprehensive listings magazine for Cambridge with articles, poetry and reviews.

Many thanks to Charlidos for sharing this video with us. Here’s Tom’s appearance on the British talk show.
