\"\"<\/a>Lionsgate<\/p>\n

Out promoting both \u201cThe Odyssey\u201d and \u201cSpider-Man: Brand New Day,\u201d actor Tom Holland\u2019s recent interview comments have sparked a major online discussion about his worst movies.<\/p>\n

Appearing on Waitrose\u2019s delightful The Dish<\/a> podcast, 30-year-old Holland was asked about how the press tour has been going, with the actor having to fly to numerous countries and doing interview after interview.<\/p>\n

He surprisingly revealed he had recently developed a severe fear of flying, which he never had before, and added \u201cnow that we\u2019re flying every second day, I\u2019m an absolute wreck\u201d.<\/p>\n

He then said the actual interviews have been easy because the films in question are great \u2013 and that\u2019s not always the case:<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m absolutely loving it. When you\u2019re doing press for movies you\u2019re really proud of, it\u2019s really easy. Because when they ask you questions about why should people go and watch this movie, you\u2019re not lying to anyone. You really think people should go see it.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve had experiences before when people say, \u2018Why should you see this movie?\u2019 And in the back of your mind, you\u2019re like, \u2018You shouldn\u2019t, because it\u2019s s\u2014\u2018\u2026[This time] it\u2019s felt really like a bit of a victory lap to be honest. I\u2019ve really enjoyed it. I\u2019m super proud of both of the films\u201d<\/p>\n

That has sparked much talk about what films he\u2019s referring to there, with \u201cChaos Walking\u201d being the most commonly cited, followed by \u201cDolittle,\u201d \u201cCherry,\u201d \u201cSpies in Disguise\u201d and \u201cUncharted\u201d all scoring multiple mentions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lionsgate Out promoting both \u201cThe Odyssey\u201d and \u201cSpider-Man: Brand New Day,\u201d actor Tom Holland\u2019s recent interview comments have…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":825776,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[64,63,142132,134],"class_list":["post-825775","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-bigslider","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/825775","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=825775"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/825775\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/825776"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=825775"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=825775"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=825775"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
