Tom Holland Says He’s Not Secretive Enough For Marvel

With Marvel Studios having such a large production on the horizon in Avengers: Infinity War, secrecy among the cast and crew is paramount. The House of Ideas treats all of their properties with a large sense of secrecy so as to protect even the smallest of leaks.

Actor Tom Holland — one of newest heroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe — isn’t quite sure if he’s necessarily as secret as Marvel would prefer. In a recent interview with Variety, Holland spoke to the matter.

“You are supposed to be incredibly secretive. I’m maybe not as secretive as they would like,” Holland reflected. “I recently came home from “Avengers” and you’re supposed to hand your script in once you’re finished.”

Except there was just one problem. Holland forgot to turn his script in — a viral video ensued.

“They only really give you the pages for that day, and I accidentally took them home and apparently there’s a big old panic at the studio, because no one could find my script and was worried that it would get out,” said Holland. “So I put a video on Instagram burning them in my dad’s wood burner just to prove that they weren’t going anywhere.”

Marvel fans are certainly anxious to see how this relationship works out on the big screen. Spider-Man: Homecoming currently has a 4.10 out of 5 ComicBook.com User Anticipation Rating, making it the sixth most anticipated upcoming comic book movie among ComicBook.com readers.

In Spider-Man: Homecoming, 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, Jacob Batalon, 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.

Spider-Man: Homecoming opens in theater July 7, 2017.
