Summary

Tom Holland, now 30, previously stated he'd be doing something wrong if he was still playing Spider-Man past 30. However, he's set to star in a new Spider-Man film "Brand New Day" (July 31) and has no plans to stop. Holland now reveals that his earlier comment may have been a negotiation tactic to leverage Sony for a better deal, rather than a genuine statement about retiring the role.
