Actor Tom Hardy says she will not be a rom-com leading man anytime soon.
The 37-year-old actor said that his experience of filming the big studio romantic comedy 'This Means War' made him averse to the genre, reported Variety.
"I didn't understand how you could do something which is so much fun and be so miserable doing it. I probably won't do a romantic comedy again, do you know what I mean?," he said.
'This Means War', which also starred Reese Witherspoon and Chris Pine, was critically panned.
The USD 65 million production only earned USD 54.8 million in the US, but did strong business in foreign markets.
Hardy was promoting his new gritty crime drama 'The Drop' with director Michael R Roskam during the interview.
