When Tom Hardy sat down with Legend director Brian Helgeland and agreed to play Reggie Kray, it was decided the same night he would play Ronnie Kray too.

Although they were identical twins, they ended up looking very different due to their height, weight and bust noses.

After a period in prison for grievous bodily harm, Ronnie was certified insane and later diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.

Take a look at this world exclusive clip of Hardy in the more challenging role of the two.
