I am burdened with glorious purpose
The story of Hank Williams, Sr.

Starring Tom Hiddleston as Hank, Elizabeth Olsen as his first wife.

I'd post pics and a link but I honestly forgot how to do that on this forum.

Sony Pictures has picked it up. I'm looking forward to a trailer and a release date.

Not a country music fan, but I think Tom is great and I love biopics.



You can't make a rainbow without a little rain.
This is a video of Tom Hiddleston singing a Hank Sr. song at the Wheatland Music Festival last year. He practiced with country singer Rodney Crowell for the movie, and he's a lot better than I expected.




I am burdened with glorious purpose
Lots of reports of how serious Tom was about getting it right. He's a great actor and Hank was an alcoholic and addicted to pain medication. This could be quite a performance! (or terrible if he gets it wrong).
