There have long been speculations that Tom Hardy will be joining the cast of "Star Wars: The Last Jedi", with some fans believing that the "Taboo" star will be playing a very important role in the highly anticipated sequel. Some believe that Hardy will appear alongside John Boyega, who will reprise his role as Finn. Luckily, there are new possible details on the scene featuring the "Mad Max: Fury Road" actor, and it looks like Hardy will be cheekier than ever.

Last year, the whispers about Tom Hardy joining the "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" cast had fans wondering about the role he will play in the film. People thought the "Taboo" star will have a cameo as a Stormtrooper in the sequel, similar to what current 007 Daniel Craig has done in "The Force Awakens". Is it possible that Hardy will play another memorable Stormtrooper in "Episode VIII"? How will the "Mad Max: Fury Road" actor work with John Boyega?

There is an interesting theory about Tom Hardy and his mystery Stormtrooper appearance in "Star Wars: The Last Jedi". According to MakingStarWars, the "Taboo" actor could be part of a crucial scene involving John Boyega's Finn going undercover as a First Order officer in the Super Star Destroyer.

Hardy's Stormtrooper will reportedly recognize the former FN-2187 and give him a big smack in the butt, possibly in congratulations for being promoted to a higher rank in the First Order. According to the report, the cheeky Stormtrooper might not be aware of Finn's actions on Starkiller Base and still thinks he is with the First Order.

It is important to point out that the details of Tom Hardy's involvement in "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" is still based on speculations and should be taken with a grain of salt. "Episode VIII" is directed by Rian Johnson and marks the return of John Boyega as former Stormtrooper Finn. The film is set to premiere on December 15.
