‘Havoc’ Promises To Be the Perfect Action Antihero Role for Tom Hardy
Tom Hardy’s role as the bruised and brawling detective Walker looks like the perfect role for the actor, who over the years has proven himself to be a Hollywood hardman (and areal-life hardman thanks to his expertise in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu). Following the likes ofBronson, Warrior, Mad Max: Fury Road, andThe Dark Knight Rises, action fans cannot wait to see what he’s capable of when under the direction ofThe RaidandThe Raid 2filmmaker Gareth Evans, who has previously teased that Havoc willfind the actor in full-on “beast mode."
“It was never going to be a martial-arts film. I wanted this to feel like the gunplay stuff that I love watching. Tom came to us in f*cking beast mode. I tapped him on the shoulder and it was just like granite. He came fully physically prepared.”
AlongsideHavoc, Hardy can currently be seen throwing his weight around with aplomb in theParamount+ seriesMobLand, which finds the actor starring a gangland “fixer” and starring alongside Hollywood royalty Pierce Brosnan and Helen Mirren. Hardy is also now finally working on bringing a second season of his critically acclaimed period thriller,Tabooto life. The actorrecently revealed to MovieWebthatTabooSeason 2 is now being worked on, saying…
“So, Taboo is something that’s for me and my family and Steven. It’s something we wanted to take time to do properly. I’ve been working for the last seven years on Venom, so it had to take a little bit of a back seat, but it’s something that I’m very passionate about. So when I have the space properly to commit, I’d revisit it properly. So it’s never been something that we didn’t want to do. It’s a question of when, and doing it properly.”
