Helen Mirren has broken her silence on her reported beef with her “MobLand” co-star Tom Hardy with a surprising message.
“Love you now and always,” the actress wrote across a photo of Hardy shared to her Instagram on Thursday.
A rep for Hardy did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
The update comes after Hardy was reportedly fired from the Paramount+ series after sources claimed he and Mirren were involved in an on-set feud during filming.
“Tom’s character is charming. He’s the calm one but it is quite the opposite when the cameras stop. Dame Helen is a joy, she is a total pro and she has worked with so many people over the years,” one source told Daily Mail last week.
“She is getting increasingly frustrated with Tom and his attitude,” they alleged. “He can be late to filming too and that is annoying for Dame Helen, who is extremely professional and disciplined. His tone is something Dame Helen doesn’t like, along with his lateness.”
The insider added that Mirren “expects better” and “holds people to a high standard.” But Hardy “swaggers around like a king” while on set and is “very, very arrogant,”
Sources also told Variety on Friday that Hardy was let go from the production over his tensions with producer Jez Butterworth, 101 Studios and others.
According to Puck News, Hardy committed several work faux pas while filming Season 2 which included being regularly late for shoots, changing the dialogue and giving frequent script notes. He was also allegedly unhappy about the ensemble cast.
It was later reported that Hardy was not fired from the show as Guy Ritchie, the executive producer behind the show is “pushing” David Glasser — whose 101 Studios backs the production — to “make it work.”
“The door is not closed for Season 3 and things are being worked through creatively,” a source close to production told Variety on Thursday.
Hardy starred in the drama as a fixer for a London crime family.
He was joined among the cast by Pierce Brosnan, 73, Paddy Considine, Joanne Froggatt, Lara Pulver, Anson Boon, Jasmine Jobson, Mandeep Dhillon and Daniel Betts.
