Tom Holland, a.k.a. Peter Parker/Spider-Man, recently revealed just how secretive the film’s production is. Holland has already hinted that he hasn’t seen the full Infinity War script, and that Marvel’s desire for Holland to not spoil the film even extends to filming scenes.
“They’re like, ‘Well, you’re fighting this person.’” Holland explained to the BBC. “‘What does he look like?’ ‘Well, we can’t tell you because if we tell you, you’ll know who it is.’ ‘Yeah, but what does he sound like?’ ‘We can’t tell you that, because that would give away who he is.’ I’m trying to act with a tennis ball and I don’t know what the person looks like.”
Nevertheless, Holland will have a featured role in Infinity War and its currently-untitled sequel – one that will have ramifications in the MCU afterwards. Holland is set to reprise his role yet again in the Homecoming sequel, which will be set minutes after Avengers 4 wraps.
Avengers: Infinity War will be in theaters May 4, 2018.
