Tom Hardy 'Axed From MobLand' After 'Clashes with Producers'
Paramount reportedly kept the creative team after 2.2 million viewers on launch day, while Hardy’s contract option for a third season was not picked up.
- On Thursday, May 21, veteran entertainment journalist Matthew Belloni reported that Paramount opted not to pick up Tom Hardy's option for the third season of MobLand following reported on-set tensions during production of the show's second season.
- Reported on-set clashes with writer and executive producer Jez Butterworth and 101 Studios CEO David Glasser prompted the decision, with alleged issues including lateness on set, script notes, and attempts to alter dialogue.
- The hit crime series, which stars Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan, became a global phenomenon for Paramount+ with over 26 million viewers and drew 2.2 million viewers on launch day.
- Paramount ultimately chose to retain its core creative team over the actor, as tensions reportedly escalated to the point where Butterworth considered leaving the production during the second season.
- Reports suggest Hardy was also dissatisfied with the series shifting toward a broader ensemble focus, though Puck noted his contract included a mutual option for a third season he could have exercised.
