Hollywood star Tom Holland has broken his silence after he suffered a head injury while filming for the next Spider-Man movie.
The Marvel actor had to receive medical treatment when he was shooting scenes as the fan-favourite character. Paramedics were called to Leavesden Studios in Watford on September 19 when the stunt went wrong.
He was subsequently taken to hospital for treatment, with filming since halted for a week while he recovers. Insiders have claimed it has not been possible to continue shooting without Tom on set.
He now shared an update with his fans on Instagram on Saturday evening as he shared a post from a gala night he attended alongside fiancée and Spider-Man co-star Zendaya. He captioned the upload, “What a night! Another huge success.

“The Brothers Trust means more to me than I could possibly say and I have to say a huge thank you to my Mum and her wonderful friends for putting on another incredible night. Raising money for fantastic causes and having fun doing it!”
Tom then shared an update on his health as he continued, “I’m sorry I had to leave early but I’m feeling better and on the mend. A huge thanks to my Dad for taking over after I left. The show got considerably funnier.”
It comes after reports that the break in filming is set to cost an eye-watering £10.5million while Tom fully recovers from a mild concussion. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is believed to have production costs $200m, approximately £150m.

According to the Daily Mail the shutdown is costing an additional £1.5million a day until they get back up and running.
Sources explained that the costs include production fees such as studio space, equipment and maintaining sets still stands despite the halting. The star-studded cast are still paid during the time off, and additional accommodation fees are incurred as a result of extended stays following schedule changes.
An insider said, “It’s a headache for any production to have to pause filming, but with a movie of this scale it will be a huge migraine for the producers and studio. Crew still need to be paid throughout the delay and there is also secondary location costs to consider.
“While health and safety comes first, everyone on the shoot will be hoping to get the cameras rolling again sooner rather than later.”
