Hollywood star Tom Holland has recently been weighing in on the various responsibilities an actor has to undertake while playing the role of an iconic superhero such as the Spider-Man. The British actor popularly knowing for playing Marvel’s Spider-Man mentioned the “ramifications of public scrutiny” that one has to tackle if they’re famous.
“It’s absolutely huge. Every time you walk outside that door, you’re representing Spider-Man. It’s tough. It’s taxing sometimes,” Holland explains. The actor further adds that at times, he might have the urge to “get wasted” at a pub but wouldn’t be able to take carefree decisions due to the superhero he represents.
Holland also talked about his plans to mentor the actor who replaces him as Spider-Man. “When they cast the young kid in Spider-Man to replace me, whether it’s next year or in five years, I’ll take it upon myself to teach them about the responsibilities of being Spider-Man,” Holland quips.
Tom has been playing the role of the beloved superhero for no less than 5 years now. He has been Spider-Man in six feature films. Previously, the role was earlier essayed by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield.
On work front Holland’s Spider-Man: No Way Home is set to hit the theatres on December 17. Andrew Garfield, who is rumoured to join the movie has denied being a part of the same after leaked images on social media platforms suggested that he would reprise his role as Spider-Man alongside Holland. The movie also stars Zendaya, Willem Dafoe, Alfred Molina, Benedict Cumberbatch, Benedict Wong, Harry Holland, Marisa Tomei, Jamie Foxx, Jacob Batalon, Angourie Rice, JK Simmons, among others.
