Fans of Tom Hardy were enthralled as they were able to get up close to the actor’s newly-unveiled waxwork at Madame Tussauds.

The actor has been immortalised in wax at the London attraction and his figure comes complete with a mechanism that mimics a beating heart and also includes a soft, warm torso.

Hardy’s waxwork, which is positioned sitting on a sofa, is clad in a navy waistcoat and trousers with a white shirt, and sports a beard.

Hardy fans posed and kissed the life-sized waxwork following its unveiling on Thursday, with some listening to the figure’s heartbeat using a stethoscope.

The British star is known for playing villain Bane in Batman film The Dark Knight Rises, directed by Christopher Nolan, as well as starring in Nolan’s Inception and Dunkirk.
