Scots martial arts stuntman works as Tom Hardy's double in upcoming Netflix film

A Greenock -born martial arts stuntman is doubling as Tom Hardy in an upcoming Netflix film.

Craig Miller, from Branchton, has been working alongside the Peaky Blinders actor for their upcoming project called Havoc.

The 39-year-old was originally brought onto the film to help Hardy, 44, with some martial arts and fighting shots but ended up working as his stunt double instead.

Craig described his "surreal" experience working alongside the Hollywood A-Lister, who has starred in huge productions like Legend, Venom and Mad Max.

Speaking to the Greenock Telegraph, Craig said the two often trained in Tom's gym in his garage at his home over the weekends, which he described as a "surreal experience".

Craig is no stranger to working alongside celebrities as he's worked on Kingsman: The Secret Service, The Titan and Transformers: The Last Knight.

He said: "Working with Tom and the team was a massive highlight.

"He is very funny and such a sweet approachable person and super handsome and talented too."

Craig added: "He’s super intelligent, breaks down every aspect of the action and character, and it is incredible to see him work."

After completing his work with Tom, Craig has already moved onto another film as he will work alongside comedian Kevin Hart.

He is working alongside Kevin on another Netflix film in Belfast as a fight trainer for the actor.

Craig has had an impressive career over the last two decades, after working alongside the best martial arts professionals in Hong Kong at just 19-years-old.

He attended a stunt school called the Hithut in Hong Kong, where he trained and qualified before using those skills to travel the world for his career.
