7 Tom Hardy dramas that crush MobLand on Netflix, BBC, and ITV

If you have had a Tom Hardy-shaped hole in your life since finishing the exhilarating latest series of MobLand, we are 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.

From a film that is, dare we say, even better than MobLand, to his haunting turn as Britain's most notorious prisoner and a charming leader of a 1960s motorcycle gang, there is something for everyone.

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 is equal parts fascinating and terrifying.

WARRIOR

If you thought you had 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.

Warrior is available to watch now on Prime Video and Apple TV.

LEGEND

This 2015 film is widely considered one of Tom's best performances.

It sees him take on the acting challenge of playing both Reggie and Ron Kray, the notorious gangster twins from east London.

The movie was written and directed by Brian Helgeland and is essential viewing for any Tom Hardy fan.

Legend is a dramatisation of the lives of the Kray Twins, based on John Pearson's book The Profession of Violence: The Rise and Fall of The Kray Twins.

The Kray Twins were notorious gangsters who operated out of Bethnal Green in east London from their organized crime unit known as The Firm and were at their peak during the 1960s.

The movie charts the brothers' rise to success, their growing empire, their relationships and their many runs as well as the police's obsession in taking them down.

Hardy's performance as both twins is the standout element of the movie.

Variety at the time called his roles "astonishing."

The Independent said he was "utterly fascinating" playing both Ron and Reggie.

Viewers love the movie too.

One reviewer on IMDb said it is "one of the best films ever made."

Another said Tom Hardy will "blow you away with his 5* performance."
