‘Taboo’ creator Tom Hardy is celebrating his 49th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor Tom Hardy (The Revenant, Mad Max: Fury Road, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 49th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Hardy, a cultural icon

Born Edward Thomas Hardy in London on September 15, 1977, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in British history. Hardy's not just a great actor, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Tom hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Tom Hardy as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 49.

Happy Birthday, Tom, you're the best!
