The Big Picture The trio of stars from The Bikeriders is oozing cool in a set of new photos from Total Film magazine for the upcoming drama. The latest feature from acclaimed director Jeff Nichols takes inspiration from Danny Lyon's eponymous journalistic photography book which captured the prevalence of biker culture throughout 1960s America.
Hardy appears in the final photo as Johnny, relaxing in the grass for a moment with a cut-up Butler. Johnny is the strong and steady hand guiding the Vandals who always seems to keep pulling Benny back in regardless of how dangerous or illegal things get. Butler went as far as comparing Hardy to Marlon Brando in a previous interview for how much charisma and joy he brought to the set, something that's slightly reflected in the easy-going Johnny.
Nichols told Total Film that The Bikeriders wasn't born out of a love for motorbikes or riding, but his appreciation for Lyon's definitive portrait of the world of bikers. "It was the most complete view of a subculture I’d ever seen," he said while recalling viewing the book that his brother owned. "...it honestly felt like ingredients or instructions to go and make a movie.
