Tom Hardy, the renowned British actor, has been making headlines recently for his unusual choice of attire while walking his dog in South West London. The 47-year-old actor was spotted wearing an Irish tricolour balaclava, which sparked a mix of surprise and amusement among fans and locals alike. The balaclava, featuring the green, white, and gold colours of the Irish flag, was paired with an all-black outfit, making for a distinctive and eye-catching look.

According to reports, Tom was walking his French bulldog, Blue, in an area more than 30 miles away from his £5million home, which he shares with his wife, Charlotte Riley. The actor's decision to wear the balaclava has been met with curiosity, with some speculating that it might be a nod to his Irish heritage. Tom's mother, Anne, is of Irish descent, and the actor has previously shown his appreciation for his Irish roots by getting a leprechaun tattoo at the age of 15.

The incident has also drawn attention from the Irish hip-hop trio, Kneecap, who took to social media to praise Tom for his unique fashion choice. The group shared photos of Tom wearing the balaclava, welcoming him as a "comrade" and jokingly suggesting that he might be the inspiration behind their own balaclava-wearing style. The exchange has been well-received by fans, with many appreciating the lighthearted and humorous interaction between Tom and the Kneecap trio.

Tom Hardy's film career has been marked by a range of notable roles, including his portrayal of Alfie Solomons in the BBC crime drama Peaky Blinders and his Oscar-nominated performance in The Revenant. The actor has also been in the news recently for his upcoming film, The Bikeriders, which is based on a book by US photographer Danny Lyon. However, the film's production has been marred by controversy, with Lyon revealing that Tom had made unusual demands on set, including a request that he not be looked at directly.

Some of Tom Hardy's notable works include:

  • Venom
  • Peaky Blinders
  • The Revenant
  • The Bikeriders
The actor's dedication to his craft and his willingness to take on diverse roles have earned him a reputation as one of the most talented and versatile actors in the industry. With his latest fashion choice, Tom Hardy has once again shown that he is not afraid to express himself and showcase his unique personality, both on and off the screen, while embracing his heritage.
