Tom Hardy - the perfect man?

Oh, I do love a hottie with a heart of gold.

Tom Hardy was out in London last night getting soaked by the rain for the premiere of The Iron Lady starring Meryl Streep - and looking mighty fine too.

But the star is also doing some serious fundraising for a charity he's patron of, that's in danger of being shut down.

Let's all just take a second to swoon.

The hunk - and future Batman villain - is trying to raise £45,000 to save homeless charity FLACK from closure, and the deadline is this week.

Apparently his wealthy Inception costar Leonardo DiCaprio is too busy supporting other charities and dating supermodels to cough up the cash, so Tom's turned to his fans, writing:

"I learned about the challenges faced by the homeless community in Cambridge when I starred in the film Stuart: A Life Backwards, which was a pivotal role in my career.

"Homelessness impacts people for life and in many cases causes mental health problems and drug and alcohol addictions. It's a cause that means a hell of a lot to me personally as I know from my own experience how tough it is to battle addiction."

They're currently at 92% of the total

Tom, here's a fundraising idea - if you promise a signed naked photo to everyone who donates, I think you'll be at 10,000% of the total…
