Patrick Stewart didn't think Tom Hardy's career would go anywhere after working with him on Star Trek
The Pic꧂ard actor had a damning assessment on working with Tom Hardy in his first major movie☂ role

Tom Hardy is a household name – but it wasn’t always that way. The fresh-faced actor appeared opposite Patrick Stewart in 2002’s much-maligned 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Trek: Nemesis and, according to Stewart’s latest memoir, rubbed the Picard 🐲actor up the wrong way.
"Tom wouldn’t engage with any of us on a social level. Never said, ‘Good morning,’ never said, ‘Goodnight,’ an🅺d spent 𒅌the hours he wasn’t needed on set in his trailer with his girlfriend," Stewart wrote in Making it So (H/T ). "He was by no means hostile – it was just challenging to establish any rapport with him."
Afte💖r Hardy left the set by "simply walking out the door", Stewart had a damning – and in hindsight, hilariously wrong – assessment of the then-fledgling actor: "[I] said q🐬uietly to [Star Trek actors] Brent [Spiner] and Jonathan [Frakes], 'And there goes someone I think we shall never hear of again.'"
Stewart, though, held his hands up years later and added: 🍸"It gives me nothing but pleasure that Tom has proven me so wrong."
Hardy, who grew in stature after minor roles in Band of Brothers and Black Hawk Down, then took on the part of a Picard clone named Shinzon. Thankfully, appearing in the Star Trek flop wasn’t the end for the British actor, who shot to stardom after turns in Bronson, Warrior, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Inception, and as Bane in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Dark Knight Rises.
Hardy is next set to appear in The Bikeriders, Jeff Nichols’ 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:indefinitely delayed new movie, alongside Austin Butler and Jodie Comer. A Veno💯m threequel is also planned and set for r🥂elease on July 12, 2024.
