7 Tom Hardy dramas that beat MobLand, streaming now

If you've had a Tom Hardy-shaped hole in your life since finishing the exhilarating latest series of MobLand, a new roundup from Good Housekeeping is here to fill the void.
The king of gangster thrillers has plenty of other material to enjoy.
His performances are every bit as impressive as his portrayal of the Harrigans' ruthless fixer, Harry Da Souza.
The list includes a film that's, dare we say, even better than MobLand.
It also features his haunting turn as Britain's most notorious prisoner and a charming leader of a 1960s motorcycle gang.
There's something for everyone.
So, get ready for thrills, violence and action.
Here are seven 5-star Tom Hardy dramas to watch now on ITV, Netflix, the BBC and more.
THE BIKERIDERS
Tom joins Jodie Comer and Austin Butler for a wild ride through Americana.
The story traces the fictional Vandals Motorcycle Club in 1960s Chicago as they go from a group of rebellious outsiders to something far more violent and sinister.
Kathy (Jodie) falls in love with reckless biker Benny (Austin) and is drawn into the dangerous world of the bikers, led by Johnny (Tom Hardy), who starts to lose control of his club.
As the gang becomes more powerful, the trio are forced to make choices about their loyalty to the club – and each other.
The Bikeriders is available to watch now on Prime Video.
BRONSON
Michael Peterson would do whatever it took to make a name for himself.

In 1974, the 19-year-old headed to a post office with a sawn-off shotgun to rob it.
He was swiftly arrested and sentenced to seven years in jail.
But that was only the beginning.
Peterson went on to become one of Britain's most notorious prisoners and renamed himself Charles Bronson after the American action hero.
Tom dons his trademark bald head and curled moustache to step into the shoes of the criminal and guide us through his life – most of which was spent behind bars and in solitary confinement.
It's equal parts fascinating and terrifying.
Bronson is available to watch now on ITVX and Disney+.
WARRIOR
If you thought you'd seen enough of Tom throwing punches, think again.
The actor takes on troubled Marine Tommy Conlon, who returns home to Pittsburgh for the first time in 14 years and asks his father Paddy (Nick Nolte) to help train him for a huge MMA fight.
Meanwhile, Tommy's estranged brother Brendan (Joel Edgerton) is an ex-fighter turned teacher who returns to the ring after he and his family fall into financial ruin.
The brothers end up face-to-face in the tournament, prepared to hurt each other for a life-changing sum of money.
Warrior is available to watch now on multiple platforms.
OTHER DRAMAS ON THE LIST
The Good Housekeeping roundup also includes several other Hardy dramas that have earned 5-star ratings from critics.
Each one showcases a different side of Hardy's range as an actor.

From gritty crime thrillers to period pieces, the selection covers his most acclaimed work outside of MobLand.
Some of these titles have been streaming quietly for years, only now getting renewed attention thanks to the MobLand buzz.
Others were hits when they first released but are finding new audiences on streaming platforms.
The common thread: Hardy's performances are consistently described as intense, physical, and deeply committed.

Bronson, for example, earned Hardy widespread critical acclaim and is often cited as one of his defining performances.
Warrior is frequently ranked among the best sports dramas of the 2010s.
WHERE TO STREAM
The list includes streaming availability for each title.
Viewers in the US can check platforms like Prime Video, Netflix, and Disney+ for most of the films.
Some titles may require a subscription to specific services like ITVX or BBC iPlayer, depending on region.
Availability can vary by country, so it's worth checking local listings.
The Good Housekeeping article notes that all seven dramas are currently streaming on major platforms.
WHAT CRITICS ARE SAYING
The phrase "5-star" in the list's title comes from aggregated critic scores and audience ratings.

Critics have praised Hardy for his ability to transform physically and emotionally for each role.
His work in Bronson is often described as "mesmerizing" and "terrifying."

Warrior continues to be recommended as a must-watch for fans of both sports dramas and family conflict stories.
FINAL WORD
For fans who finished MobLand and want more Tom Hardy at his best, this list offers a curated selection of his finest work.
The fact that one of these films is considered even better than MobLand is a bold claim worth testing.
Streaming now on ITV, Netflix, the BBC, Prime Video, and Disney+, these seven dramas are available for immediate viewing.
