Tom Hardy is seriously the best actor out there. I love his past and his future

You literally can't love someone's future because it hasn't happened yet. You mean you love his past and present. You can only love what you imagine / hope his future will be like.

[@sam_marley]

sean coyle no doubt they would've discussed what he would've been prepared to talk about backstage before going on air. You'd imagine so anyway

[@TheLaurenAshley09]

It is, but Tom has proven in the past that he has NO problem shutting down questions he doesn't want to answer. He was okay with saying as much as he did or he'd have said so.

[@11Garrett11]

Yeah I feel so bad for people who tell the truth...what are they thinking??!!?

[@realSimoneCherie]

I’m sure he’s fine but the interview would’ve been more compelling IMO to let him dive deep and shut up w/ the one-liners - everything’s not rainbows and giggles

[@natellareal]

right? This is pretty ridiculous to question him about his past. You can see he feels very uncomfortable and not at all bragging.

Although he could have kept this to himself, I’m glad he chose not to. For him to speak so candidly about his experience with the party life, he might be able to help someone out of that mindset. God bless Tom Hardy. I hope he continues to do well in life.

Feel like interviewers shouldn’t ask celebs stuff like this. It’s so uncomfortable.

[@11Garrett11]

That’s because you’re used to the Stepford wives kind of bullshit that is American television. Europeans have a much more relaxed/healthier attitude around sex. It’s fine - he’s trying to tell people that drugs fucked him up...no other way to say that. I think it’s a great interview!

[@downhilltwofour0082]

I will always think of Mr. hardy as, Mr. hardy from now on. He, like me has been to the very bottom of his life. When he got there, he had two choices. Continue on into total oblivion by losing his family, his friends, his associates and others and dying a lonely sad death, or he could realize where he had gone and decide that life is worth living but only if you live it well and sober. To do that, you must journey into your earliest years of childhood. on the planet to determine why you hate life and yourself.

Hardy is one of my favorite actors (except for the Venom films). He has always been candid about his hard-partying, bi-sexual days, but that might be due to it not being a big deal in the U.K. versus a puritanical country like the U.S.

First of all, he mentions the experience as something "dark" so what's the hype calling him things like honest or cool? Well, that's assuming he had sex with the guy because he never admitted having sex with the "dude" he said he woke up naked in the bed and a gun, that's pretty strange, dut doesn't mean they had sex.
