While Puck and Variety had claimed a firing, others say tensions (lateness, notes, script changes) weren’t enough to oust him, and no official confirmation has been made.

Tom Hardy Not Fired From MobLand as Return Talks Continue

Tensions on set—such as late script delivery and Hardy’s requested rewrites—are being worked through, with producers and Guy Ritchie eyeing a path to reconciliation. Hardy may still be needed for Season 2 reshoots, and while the show could continue without him, his involvement remains seen as key to the show’s success.
