You don't have to be a Hollywood insider to know that Tom Hardy is widely considered to be one of the most talented actors of his generation … or that he has a reputation for not always being willing to play by Hollywood’s rules. Since making his onscreen debut in 2001, the London native has gone on to collaborate with some of the world’s most talented filmmakers, including Ridley Scott, George Miller, Alejandro González Iñárritu, Sofia Coppola, and Christopher Nolan. He also created, produced, and starred in the FX series Taboo and earned an Oscar nomination for his role in The Revenant—and all of this before hitting the big 4-0.
