Tom Holland rips through 20 Spider-Man costumes
New Spider-Man star Tom Holland is keeping the movie's costume designers busy after constantly ripping the superhero's famous red and blue suits.
The British actor is swinging into action as Peter Parker and his web-slinging alter ego for Marvel's upcoming Spider-Man: Homecoming, and he reveals he has a wardrobe filled with 20 versions of the same costume because the skin-tight material frequently tears onset.
"I break them quite a lot because I have to do a lot of stunts -
flips and stuff - so they rip...," he recently revealed to the Ryan
Seacrest Foundation, after paying a visit to sick kids in a Georgia
hospital while in costume as Spider-Man.
"We have like, 20 suits, I think, that we alternate, and this is
actually what we would call a beauty suit, which means it is like
picture ready, and then we have a stunt suit, which isn't as nice
as this one."
Holland stopped by the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta hospital to
surprise young fans in August (16), but the interview was only
released on the charity's YouTube this month (Sep16).
Spider-Man: Homecoming is currently shooting in Atlanta, ahead of a
July, 2017 release.
