We knew that he was on the set and that he had seen the mask. That much we knew. Today we get more. We get a LOT more. Today we get to take a look at how huge this dude has gotten since the announcement that he had taken on the role of Bane.

Those are some impeccable back muscles. Whatsup with the mask? The single light setup helps deliver the “mystery”, and definitely delivers with regard to the tone of the character, but it also makes it hard to get a handle on Nolan’s Bane from this picture of a shirtless man showcasing his back. I can’t see the mask too well at all but it does seem to coincide with Hardy’s’ previous statement of “no Gimp”. I did notice an omission of a backpack and tubing so now I get to wonder how the Venom goes in. I think I like the look but I need to see more to be sure.
