Quote of the Day, This Is Peak Tom Holland edition.

Kid’s real bad about giving away the plot to the movies he’s in. Tom Holland doesn’t even mean to do it. It just comes out. So…

“I remember for Avengers, the Russo Brothers are like ‘so you’re just standing here, and you’re fighting this guy and just do whatever,’ and I’m like, ‘okay, who am I fighting?

And they were like ‘well, we can’t tell you because it’s a secret.’ I’m like, ‘okay so what does he look like?’ And they’re like ‘well, we can’t tell you because that would give it away,’ so I’m like ‘how big is he?’ ‘Well, we can’t tell you because that would give it away.’ So, I’m just standing there punching the air for 15 minutes and when I took the job I didn’t think that’s what I’d be doing. I’ve gotten used to it now.”

…and that’s why he didn’t get a copy of the script for Avengers: Endgame, either.

PS: This is not even remotely an exaggeration. Disney wouldn’t even let him talk to reporters for Infinity War unless Benedict Cumberbatch was there to literally yell LA LA LA whenever it looked like Holland was about to say something spoilery. But he’s a good kid and a good sport about it.
