Tom Hardy has not been fired from MobLand, but the drama surrounding his future on the show is very real. Despite reports suggesting the actor would not return for a third season, sources have confirmed that talks are ongoing and the door remains open.
According to multiple sources, the tensions between Hardy and the show's producers stem from a combination of issues, including Hardy's reported tardiness to set, which left co-stars Pierce Brosnan and Helen Mirren waiting for long periods of time.
Hardy also reportedly gave frequent script notes and pushed for changes to dialogue without approval, but sources say his creative instincts were not always off base.
Additionally, rumors of a political falling out between Hardy and Mirren were quickly shut down by sources, and while Mirren was allegedly frustrated by the long waits on set, there was no deeper conflict between the two.
This is far from the first time Hardy's on-set behavior has made headlines, with previous incidents on the sets of Mad Max: Fury Road and Star Trek: Nemesis.
MobLand premiered in 2025 on Paramount plus and quickly became one of the platform's biggest shows, starring Pierce Brosnan and Helen Mirren as the heads of a powerful British crime family, with Hardy playing Harry Da Souza, a ruthless but intelligent fixer working for the family.
