\n\tEXCLUSIVE<\/strong>: The leading trio of characters on MobLand<\/a> will remain intact for the expected Season 3 of Paramount+<\/a>\u2018s hit crime series. After some behind-the-scenes drama, Tom Hardy<\/a> is staying on and will continue to star alongside Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan, sources tell Deadline. <\/p>\n

\n\tA month ago, Hardy was looking to be on his way out<\/a> after friction between him and the series\u2019 writer, executive producer and showrunner Jez Butterworth during production on Season 2 had escalated to a point where the two could no longer work together.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the weeks since, there had been outreach that opened the door for Hardy to potentially continue on the show, with the actor also getting support from Mirren on social media. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe efforts culminated into a recent meeting in London between Hardy, Butterworth and series executive producer David Glasser, sources said. It went well, with the trio coming to a great understanding about a path forward, I hear. MobLand executive producer Guy Ritchie reportedly also was involved in the process of patching things up, which resulted in Hardy returning to the series full-time.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the end, the show proved too big and too important to mess with the lead characters\u2019 dynamic that had won over fans.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs Deadline has reported<\/a>, a writers room for Season 3 of MobLand had opened ahead of the series\u2019 Season 2 premiere. In light of the resolution, the new season is currently being written as centered on Hardy, Mirren and Brosnan\u2019s characters Harry, Maeve and Conrad, respectively.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile not officially renewed, MobLand is expected to get an order for a third season.\u00a0The crime drama\u00a0was renewed for a second season last year<\/a>\u00a0after logging Paramount+\u2019s second biggest launch for an original series behind\u00a0Landman.<\/p>\n

\n\tHardy is believed to have had a three-year contract from the onset, so his return would be pretty straight-forward. When the behind-the-scene rift came to light last month, involving reported chronic lateness on Hardy\u2019s part among other issues, production on Season 2 had been completed except for reshoots.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn addition to Butterworth, Ritchie and Glasser, the series\u2019 executive producers include creator Ronan Bennett. <\/p>\n

\n\tMobLand comes from Glasser\u2019s 101 Studios and Paramount TV Studios. In it,\u00a0two mob families clash in a war that threatens to topple empires and lives. The cast also includes Paddy Considine, Joanne Froggatt, Lara Pulver, Anson Boon, Mandeep Dhillon, Jasmine Jobson, Geoff Bell, Daniel Betts, Lisa Dwan and Emily Barber.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EXCLUSIVE: The leading trio of characters on MobLand will remain intact for the expected Season 3 of Paramount+\u2018s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":562125,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[265],"tags":[18,117,19,17,117898,5997,120080,128],"class_list":["post-562124","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-eire","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-mobland","tag-paramount","tag-tom-hardy","tag-tv"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/116840765269392113","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/562124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=562124"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/562124\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/562125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=562124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=562124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=562124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
