Tom Hardy seems to be living a pretty nice life. He’s a huge star who has been in a bunch of great movies, he has tons of fans around the world, he’s received critical acclaim for his work, and he can play a wide range of compelling roles, especially characters with obstructed mouths that you can’t understand when they speak. But even he makes mistakes sometimes, and the kind that that have lifelong consequences. We know because there’s definitive proof he paid off a losing bet to his friend and The Revenant co-star Leonardo DiCaprio by getting a tattoo about how smart Leo is.
Andrew Calisterio shared a selfie with Hardy on Instagram, that we first saw at IndieWire, and if you look at Hardy’s right bicep you can see a tattoo that reads “LEO KNOWS ALL.”
We’re sure there are plenty of fans who have Leo’s name tattooed on their body, but Hardy has to be the most famous person on that list. But why would he do that? Apparently Hardy lost a bet to DiCaprio about whether or not Hardy would receive a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination for The Revenant. Hardy bet he wouldn’t, and he was so sure he wagered a lifelong tattoo on it.
Oops.
But because he is an honorable person he kept his word, and now for the rest of his life he will be a walking display for how smart Leonardo DiCaprio is. Of course, we don’t feel too badly for him, since losing the bet meant he was nominated for an Academy Award.
Like we said, Tom Hardy seems to be living a pretty nice life.
