Fresh out of dropping Suicide Squad, Tom Hardy came and said that he would have wanted to be Rick Flagg in the DC comic book movie. However, because of scheduling conflicts, he was forced to pass on the occasion of appearing in another DC adaptation. As the actor revealed, additional 3 months of shooting for Alejandro González Iñárritu's The Revenant were scheduled and this prevented him from appearing in Suicide Squad.

However, later on, Tom Hardy revealed that he is working on another DC project, which led to many speculations from the fans.

Tom Hardy in Sandman?

The first one was the most obvious. As it is known, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is working for quite a few years now on adapting Sandman on the big screens. The actor revealed that it will be a superhero movie like nobody has seen before, a superhero flick in which no punches will be thrown.

And, as many fans presumed, this was the kind of project Tom Hardy was seeking. The two actors previously worked on two Christopher Nolan films, The Dark Knight Rises and Inception.

However, the secret project isn't Sandman, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Check out on the next page in which DC film Tom Hardy will star!
