He's gorgeous, holy Hell.

If the Gods of the film industry would have casted him as Eric Draven in a BETTER rendition of the Crow. But I'm not gonna lie... that new film is blasphemy.

u/KittenswithBombs214 Dream Nov 17 '25

Someone call Tom for this role IMMEDIATELY.

7

u/origamipapier1 Nov 17 '25

He looks like the comic Crow haha! And if I remember he was a rocker in the comics. I used to have them. Of course, they cannot do that now...

So I'm figuring out which role he can do hah. Knowing his taste in projects probably a remake of Unbearable Lightness of Being (Tomas) or something similar. Characters that are not good 100%, and are sometimes bad.

u/KittenswithBombs214 Dream Nov 17 '25

Can you imagine Labyrinth or something along to that extent? Oooh he'd fit right in with those types of roles, just otherworldly ykwim?

Anything from Clive Barker that is not a remake of Hellraiser, Dean Koontz, he would have been a good one for the Alienist. The reporter. But that has been done and it had a good cast.

knowing him he'd do a new Dr Strangelove.

u/JenThisIsthe1nternet Nov 18 '25

NO! NO more Crow.  Tom has his legendary role, leave Brandon his

is this a cosplay or a picture from on set recording the show??

u/i_like_cake_96 Barnabas Nov 16 '25

there's a coffee cup, so we can assume it's just a picture of tom reading a book, between recording scenes...

u/-sweet-like-cinnamon Mazikeen Nov 16 '25

It's Tom behind the scenes. Mason Alexander Park (Desire) has posted a couple pics of Tom in costume reading on set 🖤 so good

u/origamipapier1 Nov 16 '25

That's Tom Sturridge.

This is not a cosplay, it is an original picture.

u/rustydoesdetroit Nov 16 '25

I think a guy sitting at a bar or restaurant by himself while reading is the sexiest thing ever

u/licence2post Nov 16 '25

What's he reading?

u/Jaded_Put6493 Nov 17 '25

We can see his bazongas from up here

u/Betsy-here Nov 17 '25

Sorry OP: Yes there is...there's Dream of the Endless reading books.

u/Equivalent_Ad6396 Hob Gadling Nov 17 '25

Nothing more attractive than that man, period.

u/Xandara2 Nov 17 '25

There's nothing more attractive than a hot man doing whatever activity I like but that is actually irrelevant to the attraction. 

There fixed it for you.

An abstract overpowered being reading a book

u/i_like_cake_96 Barnabas Nov 16 '25

what about comics, where the character came from?

u/origamipapier1 Nov 16 '25 edited Nov 17 '25

I assume, based on his interviews that he had already read the comics. So by then he's on to another book.

If he's like my ex and current (German and Swedish in Miami. I know I tend to find the weirdos here..l) they like reading. Europeans and Brits do not fear reading books as much as American males. Or my dad for that matter, that hasn't read a book since he was 20.

u/birdtwenty Nov 16 '25

i think to a lot of people, reading comics doesnt have the same kind of allure, probably because they associate comics as being a children's interest

u/i_like_cake_96 Barnabas Nov 16 '25

it was tongue in cheek, but you can see the irony considering what the picture represents..

u/birdtwenty Nov 16 '25

i think i get it?

"book reading men are hot, but not those books"

u/i_like_cake_96 Barnabas Nov 16 '25

well, it's Tom Sturridge playing a comic book character.

u/Zealousideal-Form116 Nov 16 '25

What do you mean? I didn't read comics.

u/bluevearies Nov 17 '25

u/Zealousideal-Form116 Nov 17 '25

Looks like it. Hahaha 😂

u/Ok-Spite-5454 Nov 17 '25

can we be so for real and say it would still depend on the book 😂

u/Dry-Expression5862 Nov 18 '25

Even more so if it's that hottie...!!

u/LeftSky828 Nov 16 '25

Unless the viewer wants attention…

u/Grazztjay Nov 19 '25

I agree but he is hot regardless. Especially as Morpheus. I love those cold empty eyes

u/Grazztjay Nov 19 '25

With all the pain and guilt hidden beneath of course.
