'Who we would do first was the big question. Hardy as the suave, good-looking Reggie Kray, able to hide his violent tendencies under his charming exterior.Д®ach scene required thought as to the logistics of the transformation from one brother to another. 'If we couldn't get the stand-in in there,' said Pope, 'we'd put in a tennis ball on a stick that Tom would look at.' Take a look at this behind-the-scenes video for a glimpse of the filming process: The lo-fi approach sometimes went even further. He could hear himself talking and then he would react to the way he'd played it as Ronnie.' 'Tom has an earpiece, with the other take playing on it, so when he was playing Reggie he would have Ronnie's dialogue in his ear with an earpiece. When Hardy and Tomuri were playing against each other, they would have to match the previous take once Hardy had swapped roles. If he was smoking, when to take a drag on the cigarette or the cigar.' If he was drinking, when to have a drink. So when Jacob was standing in for Tom, for Reggie, say, Tom would talk to him about mannerisms. They travel together, they're great friends. He did 'Mad Max', he did 'The Revenant', he does everything Tom does. 'Tom Hardy has this wonderful stand-in, called Jacob ,' said Pope.

You might expect a modern movie to do all the work with computer generated imagery and special effects, but in fact a lot of the heavy lifting was done with the classically old-school approach of simply having someone else standing in for Hardy with his back to the camera. 'You had to run the scene twice, once with Tom playing Ronnie and then again with Tom playing Reggie,' said Pope. Inevitably Ronnie and Reggie would have to be in many shots together. We had to try not to be tricky, not to be too clever and not over-do it.' You would just play it naturally without bundling them into the frame together nose-to-nose. 'It's very easy to be drawn into being excessive about putting both actors very cleverly and smugly into the same shot all the time,' said Pope, 'whereas if you were telling the story with two actors, you'd never do that. That meant using familiar film language, such as shooting over one character's shoulder or cutting between shots of two characters when they're interacting, rather than jamming both into the same frame every time. 'We had to show the story so it appeared to be two different actors, without drawing attention to the fact that it was the one actor playing both parts.' 'The challenge was to naturally tell the story,' said Pope. While the technical challenges of having a single leading man playing two roles seem obvious, in fact the first task was a little more abstract. Connect with the audience through the mysterious lighting or bland lighting or cold lighting. 'Whether it's very dark or very bright or very contrasting. 'That, married with the lighting that is used to tell the story emotionally, the colours, everything,' Pope said. How the camera is moved, what equipment is needed to move the camera, whether it be still shots or very complicated tracking shots or Steadicam. 'It's basically how the film is told in visual terms, and the actual operation of the camera. 'The role of cinematographer is to take the script and then listen to the director's vision for the film, then visualise that onto the screen as pictures,' he said. While Hardy's differing performances would create the characters, it was Pope's responsibility as cinematographer to manage the technical aspects of the film. Here's Hardy and Hardy in the film's trailer:

'It came as a huge surprise to me that they had signed Tom Hardy up to play both roles! From being a fairly straightforward narrative, it turned into an extremely technically challenging production.' 'I read the script as if it was going to be two actors playing Reggie and Ronnie,' said Pope. Although the film's story could be more focused, Hardy is captivating - and justly award-winning - in the twin roles.
