Tom Hardy

Let’s just get the obvious out of the way: Tom Hardy is a total babe. From his accent to his lush lips to his self-deprecating humor, he’s hard to resist. So having him as a guest for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or really any event would be heavenly.

Besides being a dreamboat, Hardy also seems like a genuinely nice person. The British star likes to crack jokes with interviewers and he never takes himself too seriously. It’s easy for fame and accolades to go to someone’s head — especially for someone as handsome as him — but he seems really down to earth. He would be a perfect gentleman, plenty of “please” and “thank yous,” but once he’s more comfortable (after a few beers, probably), he would be cracking jokes left and right.

You may not have known this, but Tom Hardy also had a short-lived rap career. He was signed as a rapper in the 90s, but not much came from it. His mixtape — under the name Tommy No. 1 — leaked online in January 2018, and it’s not too bad! Maybe if the night goes well, you can convince old Tommy to come out of retirement and spit some bars for you and your family and friends. He probably won’t oblige, but you won’t know if you don’t ask!

Whether he raps or not, Hardy would probably be a great guest to have there anyway. He’s been in great movies like Inception, Mad Max: Fury Road, and The Revenant, who wouldn’t want to pick his brain to get some behind the scenes gossip or stories about his co-stars?
