Tom Holland is lovable for a lot of reasons. He’s British, he can do backflips, he can’t be trusted with any information about Marvel movies because he will spoil it, and, of course, he’s Spider Man.
But there was a minute there when it looked like Holland wouldn’t be able to sling webs in the MCU any more, after a conflict between Marvel and Sony nearly put a stop to the whole thing.
Way back in August, it was announced that Sony and Marvel were unsuccessful in striking a deal that would allow Spiderman to remain a part of the MCU, because of financial difficulties. Which broke many fans’ hearts, as Spidey, and specifically Tom Holland’s Spidey, had become a huge and integral part of the franchise. He fit perfectly into the Marvel universe, and had become one of our favourite parts of the new Avengers gang. To take him away in his prime just because of a financial dispute seemed like a terrible decision, and one that fans wouldn’t be likely to forgive any time soon.
Unsurprisingly, Tom Holland felt the same way, and after a devastating D23 Expo in which he was barred from even taking photos with the rest of his Marvel friends, he decided to reach out to Bob Iger, the president of Disney, just to let him know how much playing Spiderman had meant to him. This single email led to a very entertaining phone call that we wish we could have been a fly on the wall for. Check out the video below for all of the juicy details!
