The actor will not appear in the proposed third series following "clashes with producers" while creating the second season of the Paramount+ crime drama, in which he plays fixer Harry Da Souza, according to a report.
Matthew Belloni, the former editorial director of The Hollywood Reporter, wrote in his Puck newsletter: "I'm told Paramount recently opted not to pick up Hardy for season three after his clashes with producers Jez Butterworth and David Glasser, among others, during the recent production of season two."
The entertainment journalist also claimed: "Hardy was apparently late to set a bunch, constantly asked to give notes on scripts, attempted to change dialogue, and expressed his displeasure that a series initially built around him was increasingly becoming an ensemble showcase for Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan and other co-stars."
Tom's MobLand character, Harry, works for the Harrigan crime family, led by Conrad (Pierce) and Maeve (Dame Helen).
In April, the Daily Mail reported that Hardy might be taking a career "sabbatical" that could last years now that season two of MobLand had wrapped.
It comes after the heart-throb admitted he was seeing the impact physical roles were having on his body.
In May 2025, Hardy told Esquire: "I've had two knee surgeries now, my disc's herniated in my back, I've got sciatica as well.
"And I have that ... is it plantar fasciitis? Where did that come from? And why? Why?! And I pulled my tendon in my hip as well. It's like, it's all falling to bits now, and it's not going to get better."
