The Puck newsletter reported: '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 newsletter, written by former editorial director of The Hollywood Reporter Matthew Belloni, claims producers could not continue with Tom's behaviour.

Puck News reported Paramount and Tom declined to comment when approached. Daily Mail has contacted Tom's representatives for comment.  

It was previously claimed Tom was set to take a sabbatical after filming finished on MobLand, due to 'needing to have a rest'.

He told Esquire UK: '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 all falling to bits now, and it's not going to get better'.

In 2022 Tom responded to reports that Charlize felt threatened by his behaviour on the set of Mad Max: Fury Road.

The pair worked together on the movie but had such an explosive relationship on set that they were often involved in intense shouting matches, with Charlize calling Tom a 'f***ing c***' after he made her wait on set for hours.

Charlize also had a female producer be with her at all times as 'protection' as she was 'scared s***less' by 'aggressive' Tom according to New York Times columnist Kyle Buchanan's book.

Addressing the tension Tom admitted to Buchanan: 'In hindsight, I was in over my head in many ways. The pressure on both of us was overwhelming at times.

'What she needed was a better, perhaps more experienced partner in me. That’s something that can’t be faked. I’d like to think that now that I’m older and uglier, I could rise to that occasion.'
