Tom Hardy, the actor who played Bane in that really awful Batman movie, The Dark Knight Rises, was recently cast as Rick Flagg Jr in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad. However, Hardy had to drop of the film before filming started. Now, Tom Hardy is opening up about reason why he left the film, now that Warner Brothers has released an official pic of the film's cast, including Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), and Deadshot (Will Smith).
Recently, Tom Hardy spoke with Collider about how his The Revenant schedule caused him to have to drop out of Suicide Squad:
“There’s a very practical element as to why I’ve missed out on that foray, which is because Alejandro [G. Inarritu] has overshot by three months in Calgary, so we’ve got to go back out to Patagonia or Alaska to continue shooting The Revenant which has turned into a much bigger beast than we thought, but that also looks exceptional.”
Hardy went on to talk about having to be replaced by Joel Kinnaman:
“Literally we wrapped in Calgary for now until we go back in July. It would have smashed the two, I would’ve had a beard. It was just not gonna happen so I got ass-slammed technically out of Suicide Squad, gutted, so I had to hand it over to Joel Kinnaman, who will do an amazing job. It’s just I got bumped out, and that’s cool that’s the way it is.”
