Tom Hardy to read us all another bedtime story on Mother's Day

CBeebies have been inviting celebrities into their studio to read their viewers a bedtime story for years now, but it’s safe to say that no star has caused quite as much of a stir as Hollywood heartthrob Tom Hardy.

The actor made his CBeebies debut on New Year’s Eve with another bedtime story being read on Valentine’s Day, and now it has been announced that Tom is set to read us all his third story on Mother’s Day.

He’s back!
He’s back!

What a perfect treat for mothers everywhere, eh?

A newly released image of the star shows him snuggling up next to a polar bear with a white mouse sticking out of his pocket.

He is set to read There’s A Bear On My Chair, by Ross Collins, a “hilarious story about an angry little mouse who is desperately trying to move a bear from his chair”… But let’s be honest, most of us won’t exactly be listening to the story.

Tom’s love of dogs inspired his first CBeebies book choice.

And we still have two more stories to be scheduled!

Tom is known for playing the tough guy in his extensive film back catalogue and it is thought that he took on the CBeebies role so that his young son, Louis, was able to watch him in action.
