Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, London was at the mercy of the terrifying Kray twins (Tom Hardy). Reggie Kray was forced to spend most of his life holding back his identical twin brother, Ronnie, who suffered from paranoid schizophrenia. As acclaimed night club owners and feared gangsters, the two twins were seen to own London, and lived a life of glitz and glamour, as well as blood and brutality. That is, until Detective Superintendent Leonard "Nipper" Read (Christopher Eccleston) took the task of bringing two of the most powerful and dangerous criminals in the city's history to justice, by any means necessary.

'Legend' is a British crime thriller written and directed by Brian Helgeland ('A Knight's Tale', 'L.A. Confidential'), and staring Tom Hardy as both identical twins. Helgeland announced the project on 12th October 2013, with test footage shown at the Cannes Film Festival on 13th May 2014 with the hope of attracting buyers. Principle photography began on 12th June 2014, with the first official image of Hardy as the Kray twins being released the following day. 'Legend' is set to be released in the UK on 11th September 2015.
