Tom Hardy took the stage at the 2018 San Diego Comic-Con this weekend to give an update about several of his forthcoming projects.

“I don’t want to upset anyone, but I think he’s the coolest Marvel superhero there is,” Hardy said to the audience of his role in Venom. “I just like the way he looks, first and foremost.” Difficult to argue with that one.

The actor also spoke about the possibility of seeing him back at the steering wheel as Mad Max, in a follow-up to George Miller's dystopian film.

"It was always the plan to do three of them, so I think we're still waiting on being given the opportunity and the green-light to go ahead on the next one. But when I engaged on that there was a plethora of material on it.

"Obviously it belongs to Warner Brothers so it would be them who green-lit it. But a lot of projects are in radial, you know you wait for something to land when it's real, and as soon as it's real we'll jump on it," he added.

Last year he made similar comments about waiting for the next instalment of the film saying, "Yeah I believe [that we're doing sequels]! I don't know when that starts, but I believe that's in the books. There's a couple of those floating around. I'm waiting for the call to come. It was so good, man."
