THE DROP INTERVIEWS (Videos) – ScreenSlam sat down with the stars of The Drop during the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival to discuss the upcoming crime thriller. Tom Hardy and Noomi Rapace talked about their characters and shared their stories about working with the late James Gandolfini.
Hardy stars as Bob, a Brooklyn bartender who runs a bar known for laundering money and stashing “dirty” cash. When he is robbed by local thugs, Bob and his cousin Marv (Gandolfini) have to go looking for the culprits and recover the stolen money or else their lives are at risk.
The Drop is directed by Michaël R. Roskam and also stars Matthias Schoenaerts, John Ortiz, and James Frecheville.
“James gave a master class in a specific type of acting… and connected to all of us as an artist and also as a man, so he brought an awful lot to the table, both in authenticity, but also the pursuit of excellence when it comes to working in the arts as an actor, so he was a beacon of that.” – Tom Hardy
PLOT: A crime-drama centered around a lost pit bull, a wannabe scam artist, and a killing.
