SPIDER-MAN star Tom Holland covers the latest issue of British ESQUIRE magazine photographed by Matt Healy and styled by Crystalle Cox.
On handling his career: “One of the reasons I’ve always had such a healthy relationship with my career,” Holland posits halfway through this story, “is that it was never really something I was looking for.”
On his relationship with Zendaya: “Our business can present very stressful situations and it’s really nice to have a bedrock of a relationship that will stand the test of time,” Holland says. “We can support each other in ways that only we can, because only we understand really what it’s like to live this life, and I think that is such a luxury, because I just don’t understand how I would be able to have anything like that with anyone else. So, for me, I found my person. She’s my best friend, and I’m the happiest I ever have been when I’m with her, but I also have never felt so supported and safe, ever. Period. Maybe when I was young with my parents and my dad was picking me up from school. Not to say that our relationship is like my mum and dad.”
On the Lip Sync Battle to promote his first Spider-Man movie: “I did that Lip Sync Battle show when I was 20 or 21 and I didn’t think twice about it,” he says. “But now, as someone who’s had a little bit more experience in the public eye and has lived a life of fame for the last decade, I would really overanalyse doing something like that. I just think, as you get older, you get a little bit more cynical. The downsides of something might be a little bit more obvious than the upsides of something.”
On being mindful of what he says during press tours: “We live in a time where you can accidentally say the wrong thing, or someone can twist your words and you have to explain yourself,” he says. “And it’s just about managing those feelings and being prepared. Before, in press tours, I was like, ‘What could go wrong? Like, I’m just a lad from London and I’m excited to be here.’”
