Actor Tom Hardy Fired Back At A Reporter At The Toronto International Film Festival On Saturday (12sep15) After He Was Asked To Comment On His Sexuality.
The British actor was joined by director Brian Helgeland and actress Emily Browning at the press conference for their new drama Legend, and during the question-and-answer session, a journalist from Daily Xtra, a Toronto LGBT publication, called on Hardy to address past reports that hinted at his "ambiguous" sexuality.
Hardy immediately responded, "What on earth are you on about?", as the reporter went on to note a 2008 interview with British gay lifestyle magazine Attitude, in which Hardy reportedly admitted to flings with men when he was younger.
With a louder and more stern tone, Hardy asked him, "But what is your question?"
The reporter said, "I'm wondering if you find it difficult for celebrities to talk about their sexuality," to which Hardy replied, "I don't find it difficult for celebrities to talk about their sexuality. Are you asking about my sexuality?"
The journalist said, "Hmm... sure", to which Hardy fired back, "Why?", before giving a firm and final "thank you" to the reporter.
