Tom Hardy's Taboo Season 2 Finally Has A Planned Filming Start Date
Tom Hardy's gothic Victorian TV show Taboo has finally been given a date for when it might start shooting its long-awaited season 2. Originally airing on FX in 2017, Taboo is about James Delaney, a mystical and enigmatic figure played by Hardy who returns to London after a long stay in Africa following the death of his father.

Apparently the main reason behind the delay has been scheduling, although Knight describes both himself and Hardy as "keen to continue." You can read the full quote below:
