In fact, Miller, who recently assured Deadline that this chapter of the franchise was at a standstill, recalled during an interview with The Telegraph, the notorious brawl that Theron and Hardy had during the filming of Fury Road. “They were just two very different performers.“, he pointed.
“Tom has some malicebut also a brilliance that accompanies it, and whatever he was going through at that moment, had to be convinced to get out of his trailer“, pointed out the director about the actor’s unjustifiable attitude.
For his part, Hardy, whom yes he would like to return as Alfi Solomons alongside Cillian Murphy as Thomas Shelby in the tape that Steve Knight prepares of Peaky Blindershas yet to release the next one October 8, Venom: The Last Dance.
