- Dame Helen Mirren has dismissed reports of a feud with her "Mob Land" co-star Tom Hardy, despite claims he was fired from the series after clashing with producers and causing delays.
- Mirren, 80, praised Hardy as an "amazing actor" and "very special person," suggesting that any issues stemmed from different actors having varied creative processes.
- Reports last month indicated Hardy, 48, was axed from the British crime drama after season two production, with sources alleging he refused to leave his trailer, keeping Mirren and Pierce Brosnan waiting.
- However, a source close to the production clarified that Hardy was not fired, the door remains open for a third season, and creative differences between him and producers Jez Butterworth and David Glasser are actively being resolved.
- This incident follows Hardy's well-documented feud with Charlize Theron during the 2015 filming of "Mad Max: Fury Road," where he was accused of frequently arriving late to set.
