Emily Browning is likely to be cast in 'Legends'. The actress is in negotiations to join Tom Hardy in the period drama.

Brian Helgeland will direct the project that has the working title 'Legends' for now.

The film will be a crime thriller that revolves around identical twin brother Reggie and Ronnie Kray. The brothers were infamous in the 1950s and 1960s for their criminal track record in London.

Hardy faces the unique challenge of projecting the identical twin brothers in his upcoming project.

In the movie Browning will portray the character of a young woman who falls in love with Reggie and marries him. She hopes to change his criminal exploits through marriage.

Helgeland has written the script of the movie. Shooting for the film will start this spring in London.
