Hardy using lifts and voice-box?


British tabloid The Sun reports that Tom Hardy has been wearing lifts to appear as tall as his co-stars Christian Bale and Morgan Freeman. It also claims that he is using a voice-box to alter his speech. Take this with a grain of salt, as this source has often proven unreliable:

"Actor Tom Hardy has reportedly been wearing specially made shoes fitted with three-inch lifts on the set of the latest Batman film The Dark Knight Rises. Hardy, who is 5ft 9in, has been wearing them so he can be the same size as co-stars Morgan Freeman and Christian Bale.

According to British newspaper The Sun, the movie's producers wanted his character, Bane, to be around the same height as Batman and Morgan's Lucius Fox, who are both over 6ft.

The 33-year-old has also allegedly been wearing a voice box which controls the pitch of his speech. But he's been the victim of on-set pranks as the sound effects team have been amusing themselves by speeding up the frequency."

Any thoughts from the picture or the video? Do they justify these claims?
