It seems like only yesterday that dreamy hunk Tom Hardy was attempting to extract DNA from Captain John Luc Picard as the nasty temptered Shinzon in 2002′s Star Trek: Nemesis. Now he has a hit movie under his belt with Inception and he is what we like to call a hot property. He has two movies currently in production (This Means War and Warrior…I’m sensing a theme) and is rumored to be playing The Riddler in the next Batman reboot.

Now it has been reported that Tom has been offered the role of vampire Henry Sturgess in the film version of Seth Grahame-Smith’s novel Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter. The film is being produced by Tim Burton and directed by Timur Bekmambetov, who directed my favorite movie of 2008 Wanted with Angelina Jolie. Burton’s involvement most likely means that Johnny Depp might end up playing Abraham Lincoln which means I will be forced to leap from the nearest window to my death. I’d like to see Liam Neeson in the role but I don’t get the make the rules…yet.
