Actor Tom Hardy has shaved his head to play Al Capone in upcoming biopic Fonzo.

The 40-year-old actor was spotted with a bald head on the set of the crime drama in New Orleans as production on the movie began.

Hardy wore a dark ash gray T-shirt, black athletic shorts with white stripes and red-and-white trainers. He was seen carrying a mannequin’s head, which had a short brown wig on while making his way through the set.

The Academy Award-nominated actor previously teased his look in the movie with a picture he shared on Instagram in late March.

In the image, he wore what looked like a prison garb while sitting on a chair and holding one of Capone’s famous hats.

He had also teased Capone’s famous scar that he would be sporting in the movie.

Fonzo will follow Capone as the ruthless businessman and bootlegger who ruled Chicago with an iron fist.
