After the “Venom” star finished his final scene of the movie and walked out without saying goodbye (as usual), Sir Patrick Stewart made a prediction to his fellow “Star Trek” actors, Brent Spiner and Jonathan Frakes: “As [the door] closed, I said quietly to Brent and Jonathan, ‘And there goes someone I think we shall never hear of again.'” However, as the veteran performer acknowledged, “It gives me nothing but pleasure that Tom has proven me so wrong.”
Tom Hardy has had roles in major productions including “Inception,” “The Dark Knight Rises,” “Mad Max: Fury Road,” and “Peaky Blinders.” The actor has tons of celebrity mates too — for example, Hardy is friends with Prince Harry, while the British actor got a tattoo that came from losing a bet to a Hollywood legend. In a 2002 interview prior to the release of “Star Trek: Nemesis,” Hardy also had a different perspective on his working relationship with Stewart.
When asked if Stewart gave him any pointers on playing Picard’s clone, he first joked about Stewart harshly criticizing his performance on set. Then, Hardy made it clear he was kidding around by stating, “No … He was wonderful! He was. It was a good time. We would sit and talk. He’d tell me what he thought worked and what he thought didn’t. It was a joy to work with him,” (via IGN). Hardy also confirmed that he enjoyed watching the living legend work.
