Actor Tom Hardy transformed completely for his latest movie role as the notorious kingpin Al Capone, in the upcoming biopic "Capone".

The "Venom" star, 42, looked unrecognizable in an aged Al Capone picture, taken by photographer Greg Williams, which he shared on Instagram over the weekend.

Williams also praised the "amazing makeup" done by Audrey Doyle, who served as the makeup and prosthetics designer on Hardy's movie.

Capone died in January 1947 at the age of 48, so the makeup aged Hardy up slightly for the role.

Hardy also unveiled last Saturday the movie's first poster on his Instagram, and captioned, “Capone May 12 Chasing Fonzo ♠️🔥.”

The movie follows the famed mobster's final years, as he settled down in Palm Island, Florida, after spending the past 10 years in prison. He started suffering from dementia and became haunted by his gruesome past.

It also stars Linda Cardellini, Kyle MacLachlan, Matt Dillon, Noel Fisher, Jack Lowden, and others.

Hardy has also another upcoming project, the highly-anticipated movie “Venom: Let There Be Carnage”, which is slated for debut on October 1, 2021.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage will see journalist Eddie Brock and the outer-space parasite who lives inside him facing off against Woody Harrelson, who is playing notorious redhead serial killer Cletus Kasady, better known as Carnage.

Andy Serkis is taking over directorial duties from Ruben Fleischer, while Michelle Williams is reprising her role as Anne, Brock’s former fiancée, and Naomie Harris is set to play sonic supervillain Shriek.

The movie began filming late 2019, where it picks after the end credits scene of 2018 original, which teased the first meeting between Eddie and Kasady.
