The actor is collaborating with Czarface \u2013 the East Coast supergroup made up of producer 7L, rapper Esoteric, and Wu-Tang Clan<\/a>\u2018s Inspectah Deck \u2013 for \u2018Czarface Meets Frankie Pulitzer,\u2019 with Hardy\u2019s rap persona being Frankie Pulitzer, AKA Face Puller.<\/p>\n

Method Man will also make an appearance on the new album, along with El-O and Busta Rhymes. Hardy previewed the LP on Thursday (June 25) with new single \u2018Brothers Grimm\u2019, which, over a \u201890s hip-hop beat, sees Czarface\u2019s Inspectah Deck and Esoteric spit their verses before Hardy comes in, rapping: \u201cCame with blood in a flash you get dashed \/ Karambit to jugular femoral to the gambit \/ Arterial spray from the carotid to the ceiling.\u201d<\/p>\n

While it might seem a big pivot for the Venom star, Hardy has long been involved with rap, and back in 2011, revealed that he had actually got a record deal when he was 15, and ended up recording \u201cloads of stuff\u201d that was never released \u2013 until \u2018Falling on Your Arse\u2019 mixtape was leaked in 2018<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2018Czarface Meets Frankie Pulitzer\u2019 is also not the first time that he\u2019s worked with Czarface. In 2021, the actor first rapped on the group\u2019s \u2018Good Guys, Bad Guys\u2019 EP under the Frankie Pulitzer moniker, and a few years earlier, joined Method Man on Czarface\u2019s \u2018Knull & Void\u2019.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

News of the album follows chatter that Hardy had been fired from drama series\u00a0MobLand<\/a>, something the show\u2019s creators recently denied<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Headlines emerged lately that the British actor was let go from the\u00a0Guy Ritchie<\/a>-directed series following the shooting of season two, after disagreements with producers Jez Butterworth and David Glasser over script rewrites, as well as staying in his trailer for hours keeping co-stars\u00a0Pierce Brosnan<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Helen Mirren<\/a>\u00a0waiting.<\/p>\n

Later investigations found that there may be a way back for him, but a new report has revealed he wasn\u2019t let go at all.<\/p>\n

\u201cTom was not fired, the door is not closed for season three and things are being worked through creatively,\u201d a production source told\u00a0Variety<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019m sure Guy is probably pushing David Glasser to make it work,\u201d they continued. \u201cGuy likes working with Tom.\u201d<\/p>\n

MobLand\u00a0debuted on Paramount+ in March 2025, with Hardy starring as Harry De Souza, a \u201cfixer\u201d for the notorious Harrigan crime family. The premiere would break the record for the largest series launch for the streaming service.\u00a0NME\u2019s\u00a0review of the first season<\/a> argued that \u201cTom Hardy, both endearing and menacing, is easily the best thing in the show.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tom Hardy is gearing up to release his debut rap album \u2013 check out all the details below.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":661723,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[6491,96,678,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-661722","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-rap","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/661722","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=661722"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/661722\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/661723"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=661722"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=661722"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=661722"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
