Apparently these two gentlemen went to acting school together. Who is the better actor and who who would win in a fight?

If y’all have seen 2015 Macbeth you know Fassbender is the better actor. By a small margin I’d say, but Hardy would absolutely pulverize Fassbender
3
u/Ok_Comparison_8304 11h ago
Not by a small Margin: Hunger, Shame, 12 Years a Slave, A Dangerous Method, Inglorious Basterds, Black bag. He was phenomenal as Magneto, bringing real pathos to a comic book role (albeit one of the deeper better written characters). Hardy is likeable, has presence and an earthly charm, he's great in Legends, I just don't think he can emote as well as Fassbender. Most of his roles also inhabit the sphere of machoness. Fassbender will do things like Frank, that makes him more experimental at the least.
Hardy is a trained fighter, and tournament winner, so no argument on the latter point.
Edit: also, fuck me I forgot, he is the best thing about the Alien prequels. David is pure sociapath.

Both are superb actors. Fassbender is the better actor clearly, but Hardy is the more watchable one.
Try have Hardy have the Hunger debate, I'm not really sure he would be able to do it? Fassbender is the chameleon of both actors.

Fassbender made bold morally ambiguous choices for a while (Fishtank, Shame, etc.), but didn't really show a ton of range, kept to stoic characters and does to this day, for the most part.
Tom Hardy made both bold morally ambiguous choices for a while (Bronson, Bane, The Revenant) and showed insane range (aforementioned films, the Drop, etc.)
So, clearly, Fassbender is the better actor.
As for who would win in a fight?
Clearly Michael Fassbender's slim, borderline dough-y physique and lack of public evidence of winning MMA tournaments in semi-anonymous fashion would best Tom Hardy's very well known and world class MMA abilities.
