Like, 100 percent, I hate spiders. I thought I really liked them, and I learned that was just false. I really can't be around spiders. It scares me so much.
I'm never quite cool, if you know what I mean. I'm basically the worst, best superhero.
I often find that superheroes are the bachelors or the billionaires - and everyone loves them. Peter Parker is basically the complete opposite. I just think that's what a lot of kids feel like as they're growing up.
Teleportation would be the best because I live on airplanes. It would be super handy to be able to teleport around.
When Ron Howard rings you up and says, 'I'd like you to do my film,' you do it.
It's quite difficult to take a superhero movie seriously because everything is heightened. A kid being bitten by a radioactive spider and getting superpowers is kind of ridiculous.
My goal was to try and kind of be our generation's Marty McFly. That was what my all-time goal was.
I don't read that many books - I tend to read scripts for projects.
Performing on stage is such a buzz. I've done stupid things such as jump off a building, but I'd never experienced adrenalin like I did on stage.
I always wanted to be a stuntman. If acting went well and I was able to take a year out, I might train and get on the stunt register, which gives you qualifications so you can do more of your own stunts.
The harder you try, the better the impression you set on the people around you.
Every kid goes through puberty, wondering what to do about girls and struggling with homework, and every adult has been through that.
Adrenaline has always been my thing.
I personally think if something's not a challenge, there's no point doing it, because you're not gonna learn much.
I met two of my movie heroes. I met Tom Hanks, and I met Steven Spielberg. Oh and Quentin Tarantino.
Fame is a beast that you can't control or be prepared for.
Me and my mates go free running all the time. It's not my mum's favourite sport. I've probably jumped four metres on to grass and two metres between buildings. It's nothing like you see on the Internet, with guys jumping off skyscrapers, but it's fun.
My mom thought I could dance because I used to dance to this Janet Jackson song she'd play when I was a baby. Then she would take me to a Saturday dance school. I used to go every week and got spotted by a scout, who suggested I audition for the role of Billy in 'Billy Elliot the Musical.'
The 20-year goal is to be a film director. The 15-year goal is to win an Oscar. The five-year goal is to just keep enjoying myself.
There is so much to sailing a ship. There's about a thousand different lines on a brig ship, and knowing what each one of those does, it takes a long time, and that's why you have these cabin boys that start on the ship, and they learn throughout the years, and that's why it takes so long to captain one.
I really am having the time of my life. But as far as my future goes, I want to stretch myself as an actor in a way that Jake Gyllenhaal, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Meryl Streep do.
A lot about this industry is about who you know. If you set a really good example for yourself, and someone likes that, then they might recommend you to someone else. It doesn't matter what job you're in, any profession, it's always the same.
Colombia is so different to what I know, and every aspect of the country is different to England, and I loved it. I loved the culture and the food, and the coffee was amazing. The place that we were was stunning, and it really was quite an amazing experience to film out there.
I reckon I had 30 Spider-Man costumes over the years since I was a little baby. I had Spider-Man bed sheets.
Being on a film set, you are always around such fantastic people. And I feel like I've been lucky. I feel like I've worked with the best of the best.
I think 'Spider-Man 2' is one of the greatest superhero movies ever made.
I went to an ordinary primary school, and then I started performing in a show called 'Billy Elliot' on the West End, and that was sort of my drama school.
On stage you need to emphasize every emotion. But on screen you need to tone everything down and make it believable.
I have a photographic memory.
I go to The Brit School, which is where Adele, Amy Winehouse, and Jessie J went.
When I'm acting, it's like I am the character - no one can talk to me. But I'm not so method I'd sell my house and live on the street to play a tramp.
It was amazing for me to play a character opposite Benedict Cumberbatch - he's someone who I've looked up to for years - and the idea that I would work with him and then become friends with him was an amazing experience.
I remember actually going to see the first 'Avengers' with one of my best mates from home. I'd never have dreamed that I'd be in one of these movies, let alone playing Spider-Man.
I've made 'The Pilgrimage' - where I actually had to speak Gaelic - and I was shooting in Belfast as well.
My teenage life was a little strange.
Bullies now aren't just jocks. They're rich kids in the nice cars with the fancy clothes.
I was truly obsessed with Obi-Wan Kenobi.
I don't like spiders at all, but I love heights.
I am playing a superhero for kids, and I don't want them to think I'm some dirty fool.
Peter Parker is probably the most relatable superhero - maybe ever - because he goes through something that basically everyone has to go through. Whether it's puberty or talking to girls or doing homework, he does it in such a human way. That's why he's such a beloved character: because so many people can relate to him.
Peter Parker's storyline hits every key point of growing up.
I'm not a very good swimmer, and every time I'm in the water, I'm constantly reminded of that because I feel like I'm going to drown!
It's very easy to relate to a kid who is having trouble in high school... less so to relate to a billionaire whose Lamborghini broke down.
I was in my bed scrolling through Instagram. It had been about a month since my audition. And Marvel just posted a photo saying go to our website and find out who the next Spider-Man is. I went on the Marvel website on my computer, and there it was: The new Spider-Man is Tom Holland. I went ballistic - like, absolutely nuts.
I don't mind sitting at home playing the guitar for a year as long as I'm making good films.
I'm literally tone-deaf with singing. It's unreal.
I completely and utterly rely on my mum. Without my mum, I would not be anywhere at all. I'd literally just be a couch potato.
'Spider-Man' was the best time of my life. I was there with my best friend. We shot in Atlanta. We shot every day and just had an absolute blast. 'Avengers' was crazy because you're on set every day with actors I never dreamed I would work with. I'm as much a fan as anyone else.
I feel like if you put something out into the universe, then you increase your chances of it happening.
