Relatable as ever, Tom Holland recounts drunkenly crying to Disney CEO Bob Iger
Tom Holland is making us laugh, yet again.
In October, Disney CEO Bob Iger joked on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" that the actor, 23, cried to help keep Spider-Man in Marvel Cinematic Universe after negotiations broke down between Disney and Sony Pictures over future Spider-Man films.
Now, Holland is confirming that he not only cried, but he was drunk when Iger caught up with him over the phone.
During an appearance on the same late-night show Wednesday, the actor recounted when he got a call from the CEO while at a pub.
"I’m three pints in, haven’t eaten much, and I get a phone call from an unknown number and I have a feeling. I’m like, ‘I think this is Bob Iger but I’m drunk,'” Holland said.
Holland also admitted that he wept during the call.
"I was really emotional cause I felt like it was all coming to an end," he added.
It all worked out, though. The phone conversation ignited more dialogue about the future of the superhero, he explained.
This isn't the first time Holland has left us laughing.
Remember his NSFW Instagram reaction to Spider-Man news?
After it was announced Sony and Marvel reached an agreement and Spider-Man is staying put for another film, the actor reacted to the news with a NSFW clip of Leonardo DiCaprio in "The Wolf of Wall Street.".
"I'm not (expletive) leaving," DiCaprio says in the clip, which Holland posted on Instagram and captioned with a smirking face emoji.
Holland handled Gwyneth Paltrow forgetting him like a pro
He also had the best reaction when he revealed that Gwyneth Paltrow forgot about working with him in more than one movie.
While playing a trivia game for PopSugar with co-stars Zendaya and Jacob Batalon, Holland admitted that he was heartbroken that Paltrow never knew his name.
"I mean, I've only worked with Gwyneth one time – on "Spider-Man: Homecoming," which she doesn't remember," he said. "Still to this day breaks my heart."
The two also briefly worked together on "Avengers: Endgame" and the Goop founder made it pretty public then she had no clue who Holland was.
He continued, "One time when we were shooting... 'Avengers: Endgame' she was in her blue suit and I was in my Spider-Man suit and she came up and she asked me for a photo with me and Robert (Downey Jr.). And then I think she posted it and she said, 'Robert Downey Jr., myself and this guy.' I was just 'the guy.' It was cute. It was cute."
