As Bane, he was the weirdly high-pitched thorn in Batman’s side. In Venom, he portrayed two completely different voices. Tom Hardy’s actual accent couldn’t be further away from any of them. But according to The Hollywood Reporter, Hardy — born in Britain — doesn’t always go for accuracy saying, “Accents, dialect and vocal stuff is multilayered depending on whether I want to translate as opposed to how accurate I sound," adding that absolute accuracy is "not essential, necessarily." To hear a variety of Tom Hardy’s accents including his real one watch this.

The star of the United States of Tara, Toni Collette actually comes from Sydney, Australia. But, according to The Boston Herald, Collette has become so used to using an American accent that she was thrown when asked to perform in a movie using her original Aussie accent.

Watching the film, it’s jarring to me.” To hear Collette discuss accents in her original accent — alongside Irish actress Saoirse Ronan — watch this.

Mr. Grey himself, Jamie Dornan, is actually from Ireland. According to the Daily Edge, Dornan acknowledged how thick his original Irish can be to Conan O’Brien saying, “I think I’m quite good at softening it when it needs to be.
