One shopper said: “Just had my day made. Tom Hardy was shopping in my Tesco!”
Tom, 44, is best known for roles in Peaky Blinders, The Dark Knight Rises and Venom.
It is not the first time the star has been spotted shopping in the county.
In 2019, the Legend actor stopped to take pictures with fans in the Sussex Company Produce Store in Steyning High Street.
It was reported that the star and his wife Charlotte Riley moved from London to the countryside over concerns the star was being stalked.
The release of Tom’s latest film Venom: Let There Be Carnage: was released in October Tom reprised his role as lethal protector Venom in the Marvel sequel, in which he was also a producer and worked on the story.
Addressing plans for a third instalment, he told Esquire UK: “I’m thinking about the third movie as well, because I think you need to write that at the same time.
“A third won’t be greenlit until the second is successful, but the studio were really, really pleased with number two.”
The release of the film was delayed because of the Covid-19 pandemic, Tom who has three children, said he used lockdown to reflect on what is important.
He said: “I had an opportunity to observe the world and my own behaviours and how I lived my life and what’s important and what isn’t.
“I spent a lot of time fighting the concept of ‘grown-up’. I think all the baddies and all those sorts of ‘grrrr’ characters that I’ve played, I’m not that.
“Now I’m getting older these things are becoming less scary. So it’s not caring so much what people think.
“I think there’s less reason to work, ultimately, because the life-drive is to be with the kids and to be fit and healthy and eat well and stuff.
