He won a televised modeling contest in 1998, which resulted in a job offer. He enrolled in Drama Centre London’s acting program but was once more dismissed. Nevertheless, he was given small parts in the movies Black Hawk Down and the television miniseries Band of Brothers in 2001. However, Hardy’s career did not really take off until he joined a drug recovery program in 2003 as a result of a crack-related breakdown on a London street.
