Tom Holland Gushes Over ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ Premiere; Brother Crashes Red Carpet Interview
Tom Holland’s brother stole the spotlight during the premiere of his new superhero flick, “Spider-Man: Homecoming.”
On Wednesday, Holland attended the Hollywood premiere of “Spider-Man: Homecoming” with his family. His mom Nikki, brothers Harry and Patrick, his grandparents Tony and Tess, grandma Tina and cousin Sydney all showed up at the premiere of his Marvel movie to support the young actor. And during his red carpet interview, the “Spider-Man” star opened up about what he was feeling attending the premiere of his big-budget movie with all his loved ones.
“I’m losing my mind right now,” the 21-year-old star told Entertainment Tonight of the star-studded premiere at the red carpet. “This is so surreal. My whole like, last three years has been leading up to this moment and we’re here today and I can’t believe it. I genuinely can’t believe it.”

His younger brother could not help but be extremely proud of his big bro for his accomplishments. “[I’m] very proud, yeah, I try to be like him,” said Holland’s youngest brother Patrick, 13, stepping in the interview. “I try I do a lot of auditions, but I never get them.”
Since Patrick has not made his big screen debut yet, his older brother suggested that he could play the young “Spider-Man.” If they do a flashback, he can be baby Peter Parker. Holland also recommended that Patrick could play Peter’s long-lost brother. The two resemble each other, so there would be no problems in case Marvel considers the idea.
This is not the first time Holland has showed off his close relationship with his siblings. Holland once shared a clip on Instagram of him and Patrick. According to him, his younger brother was his new gym partner. “Paddy and Nikki are in L.A. But honestly Paddy is better in the gym than me and I am 15 years old Toms Relationship to ALL his brothers is the best and sweetest thing ever,” his caption read.
Meanwhile, after Patrick reunited with the rest of his family, Holland talked about his co-stars and director. “I think the amazing thing that [director] Jon Watts did was cast who was best for the role rather than who looked right, according to the comics,” he said. “I'm so glad he made that decision. I’ve got friends for life and they’re brilliant in the movie.”
In other news, Marvel boss Kevin Feige confirmed that Holland’s character “Spider-Man” will not appear in the “Venom” spinoff starring Tom Hardy. “No, I think the folks there are making a great Venom movie and I don’t know much about it, but I know they’re off to a good start with Tom Hardy,” he said.
“Spider-Man: Homecoming” hits theaters on July 7.
