Did Tom Holland Actually Pitch A Sex Scene For Spider-Man: Homecoming?

Spider-Man: Homecoming has received lots of love for its superhero story, but its coming-of-age aesthetic has also got fans swooning. The film follows Peter as he deals with high school, struggles with his aunt, and crushes hard on a very popular girl. However, thanks to some new comments from Tom Holland himself, the actor may have wanted the film to be – well – a lot more steamy.

Recently, the British native sat down with Capital FM for an interview, and Holland revealed how involved he was with Spider-Man: Homecoming.

“I’ve always wanted to be in a movie where I could collaborate with the directors and producers to bring ideas to the table. I’m just lucky that I had the opportunity with this movie,” he said.

“I was writing scenes and writing ideas and making set pieces and just sending them off to Marvel. A lot of them, they were like, ‘No, that’s a terrible idea.’ But a couple they did take and put in the movie.”

However, when Holland was asked what kind of scenes Marvel Studios vetoed, the actor said this: “I was like, ‘We should have a really passionate sex scene,’ and they were like, ‘No, I don’t think so.’ Fully nude, and I am method, you know. It’s the only way.”

Yeah, a scene such as that would have changed the tone of Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Of course, there’s little doubt that Holland was kidding about the pitch. The anecdote was full of laughter, and the actor is a big enough fan of Spider-Man to know the hero wouldn’t be hooking up in his first standalone movie. When it comes to schmoozing around, the MCU will leave its one-night stands to Tony Stark.

There is a chance future Spider-Man: Homecoming films could delve into Peter’s sexuality. Marvel Studios has said the hero will get a trilogy that spans over the hero’s high school years. Peter is at the age where hormones start racing, and it looks like one of his classmates Michelle has a certain interest in the Queens hero already. The pair may not ever hit the sheets, but fans would be interested in seeing how Holland’s iteration of Spider-Man acts when he is in a full-blown relationship.

Just, let’s hope the actor doesn’t pitch any other wild romantic scenes for Spider-Man’s coming outings. Spider-Man: Homecoming is in theaters now! Give it your personal rating below!

A young Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Tom Holland), who made his sensational debut in Captain America: Civil War, begins to navigate his newfound identity as the web-slinging super hero in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, Peter returns home, where he lives with his Aunt May (Marisa Tomei), under the watchful eye of his new mentor Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.). Peter tries to fall back into his normal daily routine – distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man – but when the Vulture (Michael Keaton) emerges as a new villain, everything that Peter holds most important will be threatened.

The cast includes Tom Holland, Michael Keaton, Zendaya, Donald Glover, JacobBatalon, Laura Harrier, Tony Revolori, Tyne Daly, Bokeem Woodbine, with Marisa Tomei, and Robert Downey Jr. It also includes Jon Favreau, Martin Starr, Kenneth Choi, Michael Mando, Selenis Leyva, Isabella Amara, Jorge Lendeborg, Jr., JJ Totah, and Hannibal Buress.
