Tom Hardy has admitted he was really struggling during a brutal fight scene in Havoc. The 47-year-old actor is used to taking on intense action sequences, but part of Gareth Evans’ new Netflix show left him wondering if he’d even ‘make it’.

A generic cops-and-drug-dealers saga infused with occasional chaos, Gareth Evans' Havoc is a decent time, despite its plateauing excess. The long-delayed Tom Hardy vehicle — it completed production in 2021 — has just enough by way of visual panache to set it apart from the usual crop of forgettable, straight-to-streaming action.

Although Havoc set in an unnamed US city, all of it was filmed in Wales.
