An iconic Hollywood star’s son was the spitting image of his famous dad as he attended the Venom: The Last Dance premiere in London on Wednesday.

The 16-year-old is the son of a beloved British actor, who as well as starring as a  Marvel anti-hero, is also an Academy Award-nominated and a BAFTA winner.

Meanwhile, his step-mother is a well-known Peaky Blinders star – but despite the  fame, his dad is known for keeping his life and family quite private. 

Can you guess who his famous father is?

Looking just like his famous dad on the red carpet this week, can you guess who they are? 

He is Louis Thomas Hardy – the son of Venom sensation Tom Hardy!

The 16-year-old showed off the same sharp cheekbones and blue eyes as the London-born star.

Tom, 47, welcomed oldest son Louis with ex partner Rachael Speed, after the pair met on set of the historical miniseries The Virgin Queen in 2005.

He met wife and English actress, Charlotte Riley, 42, shortly after he and Rachael split up around 2009.

And on Wednesday, Louis made a beaming appearance on the red carpet to celebrate his dad’s leading role in the new film of the beloved Marvel franchise.

He wore a stylish denim aviator jacket and dark denim jeans, finishing off with Ugg boots.

Talking about Louis on an interview with Entertainment Tonight in 2018, Hardy revealed that his oldest son played a crucial role in his preparation to play the anti-hero.

‘He was pretty much in the driving seat for most of it, and I did use him as my anthology and mythology wizard.

Tom welcomed Louis with ex girlfriend Rachel Speed but split shortly after; since 2014 he has been married to Peaky Blinders star Charlotte Riley, 42 (Tom and Charlotte seen in 2016)

‘He told me what I was doing wrong and I was doing more things wrong than I was doing right because children are deeply honest. 

‘He was my little spirit guide in that aspect. So as far as I’m concerned, I passed his [test], and that’s the best I could do.’
