\t \t\t \tIs Tom Holland really ready to quit ‘Spider-Man’ as he turned 30? \t <\/p>\n
Tom Holland is looking at his future with Spider-Man franchise differently after previously saying he did not want to play the superhero in his 30s.<\/p>\n
\u200bThe British actor, who turned 30 on June 1, recently sat down with GQ and reflected on the comment he made in 2021.<\/p>\n
\u200bAdmitting that his perspective has changed since, Tom said, \u201cIt\u2019s funny, I saw that quote pop up somewhere recently and I kind of reeled, because I was trying to remember what I meant.”<\/p>\n
\u200bHolland said he does have the acknowledgement that one day he has to eventually hand the role over to someone else, but right now he is just not ready to do that.<\/p>\n
\u200b\u201cI think the point of it is that I would love to pass the baton on, and I haven\u2019t achieved that yet,\u201d said Holland, who has played Peter Parker since he was 18 years old.<\/p>\n
\u200b\u201cIt\u2019s definitely something that we talk about a lot at the studio. So maybe I need to change the quote to 37.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u200bHolland also joked that his old comment may have been part of a strategy during his contract negotiations with the franchise.<\/p>\n
\u200b\u201cSo I don\u2019t know what it could have been,\u201d he noted. \u201cIt could\u2019ve been part of a strategy to create fear.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u200bDespite his earlier remarks, Holland made it clear that he still loves playing Spider-Man.<\/p>\n
\u200b\u201cI think the truth is that playing Spider-Man has been the joy of my life,\u201d he emphasized. \u201cI now kind of stand on the plinth of like, I\u2019ll do it for as long as they\u2019ll have me.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Is Tom Holland really ready to quit ‘Spider-Man’ as he turned 30?
