Tom Hardy's Bane costume from The Dark Knight Rises...

Forget Ra's Al Ghul and The Joker, in the final installment in Christopher Nolan's epic Dark Knight trilogy Tom Hardy provides the menace and the muscle as Batman's backbreaking villain, 'Bane'.

Bane's face mask gives his voice a 'Darth Vader' quality, although with a posher British accent thanks to English actor Tom Hardy.

Lindy Hemming was responsible for updating the look of Bane for his latest big screen outing. His militaristic style is a great improvement, along with the portrayal of the character overall, from the brainless muscle-bound Bane that appeared in Joel Schumacher's 1997 critical flop, Batman & Robin.
