Actor Tom Hardy blasted a hapless reporter at The Dark Knight Rises premiere in Leicester Square for asking 'pants' questions.

A video shows the 34-year-old actor listening to the beginning of a journalist's question before quickly interrupting him.

In a classic suit and trench coat with slicked-back gelled hair, Hardy looks confused and says: "What are you on about, man? Your questions are pants man."

The reporter carries on asking various questions before Hardy says: "Thank you for your questions, they're awesome. You need to work on those buddy."

Another reporter introduces herself while Hardy shakes his head and says to her: "Bad questions man. His questions suck, I apologise."

Hardy plays blockbuster villain Bane, the leader of a terrorist group intent on destroying Gotham City.

Co-stars Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Gary Oldman, Anne Hathaway, Marion Cotillard, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Morgan Freeman also attended the premiere.

The Dark Knight Rises will open in the UK tomorrow.
