The son of an iconic Hollywood star was the spitting image of his famous father as he attended the premiere of Venom: The Last Dance in London on Wednesday.
The 13-year-old is the son of a beloved British actor, who in addition to starring as a Marvel antihero is also an Academy Award nominee and a BAFTA winner.
His stepmother is a well-known Peaky Blinders star and shares a stepsister and stepbrother, but despite the fame, his father is known for keeping his life and family quite private.
The teen was the spitting image of his famous father as he graced the red carpet for the glitzy premiere of Venom: The Last Dance on Wednesday.
Can you guess who his famous father is?
The son of an iconic Hollywood star looked just like his father as he attended the premiere of Venom: The Last Dance in London on Wednesday
He’s Louis Thomas Hardy – the son of Venom sensation Tom Hardy!
The 13-year-old showed off the same sharp cheekbones and blue eyes as the London-born star.
Tom, 47, welcomed eldest son Louis with ex-girlfriend Rachel Spead, a casting director, when the pair are said to have met on the set of period miniseries The Virgin Queen in 2005.
He met his wife and English actress, 42, shortly after he and Rachel split around 2009.
And on Wednesday, Louis appeared beaming on the red carpet to celebrate his father’s starring role in the new film in the beloved Marvel franchise.
He wore a stylish denim aviator jacket and dark denim, topped off with Ugg boots.
Speaking about Louis during an interview with Entertainment Tonight in 2018, The Revenant alum revealed that his eldest son played a crucial role in his preparation to play the antihero.
“He was pretty much in the driver’s seat most of the time, and I used him as my anthology and mythology wizard.

Tom welcomed Louis with ex-girlfriend Rachel Speed but split shortly afterwards; since 2014 he has been married to Peaky Blinders star Charlotte Riley, 42 (Tom and Charlotte seen in 2016)
‘He told me what I was doing wrong and I did more things wrong than right because children are very honest.
“He was my little spiritual guide in that regard. So as far as I’m concerned, I’ve passed his [test]and that’s the best I could do.’
Tom and Peaky Blinders favorite Charlotte found love after starring in Wuthering Heights together and eventually tied the knot in July 2014.
According to OK! Magazinethe lovebirds exchanged vows during a lavish ceremony in the south of France.
The couple welcomed their first daughter in 2015, but never revealed the child’s name.
Tom opened up about his second child during an interview with Esquire in May 2016 – revealing that the first few days of his newborn’s life had been tough on his schedule.
“If someone else did that to you, you would arrest them in The Hague for war crimes,” he joked about his lack of sleep.
They were also a baby boy in 2019, and The Sun reported at the time that they named him Forrest in tribute to the legendary 1994 film.
