The National Theatre has announced that Tom will be joining Sandra Oh in an adaptation of Moliere's The Misanthrope, playing the part of Stefan. Previously announced cast members include Paul Chahidi (who coincidentally joined Tom in November for a live reading at Westminster Abbey of wartime poetry) and Abigail Cruttenden. There will be a Lost in Austen reunion as well, with the lovely and talented Jemima Rooper playing the part of Elaine.

Not really a hard question to visitors of this site, obviously, but the Jane Austen Today blog is asking for your vote here.  And if you care to, share your ideas about why Tom made such an unequalled Mr. Bingley.
