Tom Hardy insists on having lavender diffusers in his trailer as details of extraordinary 27-item rider list revealed

SCREEN tough guy Tom Hardy insists on having a lavender diffuser in his movie trailer to help him relax.

Other “must haves” include strawberry ice cream vapes, M&S low alcohol Czech lager and Molton Brown peppercorn shower gel.

He also insists on a weekly IV treatment with a mixture of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

The 47-year-old Brit — who has played Mad Max, a Spitfire pilot, a Peaky Blinders gangster and Batman baddie Bane — is equally adamant that his French bulldog Blue has a range of treats, a bed and “duck dishes”.

In all, his backstage “rider” lists 27 demands.

It was meant to be sent to producer Peter Heslop ahead of a new movie.

But instead the email went to namesake Pete Heslop, a 31-year-old IT worker from London.

Pete said that, despite repeatedly pointing out the errors, he has received 50 over five years — one about actor Idris Elba, and even messages from the producer’s wife.

The Sun contacted Hardy’s team for comment.
