Believe it or not, Tom Hardy nearly joined the now-defunct DC Extended Universe , or DCEU, in an unexpected role. The Oscar-nominated actor was originally up for the role of Rick Flag in the 2016 DC comic book movie , Suicide Squad . However, due to various circumstances, Hardy's casting did not pan out, and instead, the part of Flag went to Joel Kinnaman . Hardy admitted he regretted not being able to work on the film and heavily praised David Ayer 's script, but it turned out that Hardy dodged a huge bullet by not taking the role . It's time to explain why Hardy's career is better for not appearing in the greatly maligned DC feature, Suicide Squad .
