Tom Holland hypes 'Spider-Man 3' fight scene as 'most impressive he's ever seen'

Holland is definitely qualified to make such a judgment, as he has starred as Peter Parker in five Spider-Man installments to date: Captain America: Civil War (2016), Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Avengers: Endgame (2019) and Spider-Man: Far from Home. 

Still, based on what he told Allie Jones for his recent Esquire cover story, it's slightly surprising that Holland was allowed to see an unfinished cut. Below is the excerpt in question from Jones' profile: 

“I honestly have no idea what this film is about and I’m eight weeks into shooting it,” he says, only slightly kidding.

This is a problem he’s created for himself. Holland has a reputation in the Marvel universe for divulging certain details about forthcoming films at inopportune moments. (In his defense, Mark Ruffalo is widely considered to be worse.) “I will always argue that I didn’t” spoil anything, he says, “and Marvel and Sony will always argue that I did.” Among his alleged transgressions: In 2018, he reportedly gave away the ending to Avengers: Infinity War to an L. A. theater full of fans about to watch it. More (somewhat inconclusive) evidence can be found in the YouTube video “tom holland spoiling stuff for 4 minutes straight,” which currently has more than twenty-four million views.

Given this at least partly earned reputation, the powers that be have limited the amount of information Holland receives about his story lines while he’s filming them. When he arrived on set in Atlanta, he got the first seventy pages of the script and a short outline for the conclusion of the film. But he’s working on a theory that the packet had some omissions, or perhaps even decoy information.

Holland took a sharp detour from Spider-Man when he signed on as the titular character in Cherry, directed by Anthony Russo and Joe Russo. The crime drama was adapted from Nico Walker's 2018 novel by the same name. Holland sinks deeper into real-life darkness and trauma as a soldier who suffers from addiction and PTSD then turns to life as a bank robber.
