In 2015, Hollywood greats Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy co-starred in the action and adventure film Mad Max: Fury Road. Now it’s becoming apparent just how bad the relationship between the two actors really was during filming.
“She really felt threatened”
On Tuesday (February 22nd) the book “Blood, Sweat and Chrome” was published. In it, cast and crew members look back on the on-set clinch. Film producer PJ Voeten disclosed that the tension in the air could already be felt after the two met for the first time. The conflict then escalated because of the unpunctuality of the “Venom” star. Hardy was three hours late that day, causing Theron, now 46, to lose her temper. Her colleague reacted extremely aggressively to her tirade. “She felt really threatened,” explained a cameraman.
Hardy denies
Theron then no longer felt safe and asked for protection. “She then had a producer who was by her side all the time,” the filmmaker continued. Hardy also has his say in the book. However, he was of the opinion that he could never have seriously threatened the actress. “Charlize is a blatant woman,” said the 44-year-old.
