In 2007, he appeared in BBC Two's drama based on a true story, Stuart: A Life Backwards.

Hardy starred in five films in 2015. The first, Child 44, set in 1950s Soviet Union, saw him playing Leo Demidov, a Soviet secret police agent who investigates a series of child murders. Despite mild praise for his acting, Child 44 was reviewed negatively by critics and was a box office failure.[45] Hardy then played the title character, Max Rockatansky, in the action film Mad Max: Fury Road (2015).[46][47] His performance was praised by critics[48][49] and overall the film received critical acclaim and became a box office success,[50] grossing over $378 million against a $150 million budget, becoming the highest-grossing film in the Mad Max franchise.[51] He played a dual role as London gangsters Reggie and Ronnie Kray in the crime thriller Legend (2015).[52] On 7 December 2015, Hardy won Best Actor at the British Independent Film Awards for his portrayal of the Kray twins, and on the same night attended the premiere of the biographical western thriller The Revenant, in which he reunited with his Inception co-star Leonardo DiCaprio, at Leicester Square, London.[53] On 14 January 2016, Hardy received his first Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor for his performance in The Revenant.[54]

Personal life[edit]
Hardy was married to producer Sarah Ward from 1999 until they divorced in 2004.[70] He met assistant director Rachael Speed on the set of The Virgin Queen in 2005, and they had a son in April 2008[71] before separating in 2009.[72] That year, Hardy began a relationship with actress Charlotte Riley after they met on the set of Wuthering Heights. They were married in July 2014.[73] They have two children; the first was born in October 2015[74] and the second in December 2018.[75] They had two rescue dogs, Max and Woodstock, and Hardy appeared with Woodstock in a PETA advert to promote pet adoption.[76] Woodstock died on 5 June 2017 due to an aggressive case of polymyositis.[77]
Hardy has suffered from dysthymia, and spent much time in his youth drinking alcohol and using crack cocaine to cope with it; he has said that he was going "out of control" with his drink and drug use before deciding to seek psychological help when he was 20 years old.[78][79][80]
While portraying prisoner Charles Bronson during the production of the film about his life, Hardy met Bronson several times and the two became friends. Bronson was impressed with how Hardy managed to match his muscularity and how well he could mimic Bronson's personality and voice; he stated that he believed Hardy was the only person who could play him.[81]
