The cast of MobLand will all be returning for season 2 — but who will be part of season 3 after rumors of a cast member being fired?
The hit crime drama, which premiered in 2025, follows Harry (Tom Hardy) as a fixer working for the Harrigan crime family led by Conrad (Pierce Brosnan) and Maeve (Helen Mirren). Paddy Considine, Joanne Froggatt, Lara Pulver, Anson Boon and Mandeep Dhillon also star.
Concern about the show’s future arose after multiple reports released in 2026 claiming there was drama behind the scenes on set. (Mobland had already completed production for season 2 amid plans for a renewal).
According to Puck, Hardy was allegedly fired from the series after filming wrapped on season 2. A source told The Hollywood Reporter at the time that Hardy “refused to come out of his trailer for hours at a time.”
Variety, meanwhile, reported that Hardy “was not fired,” with an insider close to production claiming that “the door is not closed for season 3 and things are being worked through creatively.”
Hardy’s rumored exit wasn’t the first time MobLand faced speculation about offscreen drama. In December 2025, the Daily Mail reported that Mirren wasn’t thrilled by Hardy’s lateness, which she addressed in a light-hearted manner.
“Things I love,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. “Tom Hardy for his brilliance on screen [and] his dedication off screen.”
Mirren went on to praise Hardy’s “good heart” and “especially the HardyHugs I get when onset with him which is not nearly enough in my opinion.”
