Tom Holland, the talented young actor known for his role in the Spider-Man franchise, recently opened up about the benefits of working alongside his girlfriend, Zendaya. During his appearance on a podcast, Holland shared his positive views on acting with someone he’s romantically involved with.
At 28 years old, Holland humorously pointed out that studios must appreciate the logistical conveniences of their relationship, joking that they only need “one hotel room.” He mentioned that while they share a busy work schedule, they aren’t rushing things. “We’re not crazy. It’s work, alright?” Holland added, indicating that they maintain a professional mindset despite sharing personal lives.
Holland described having Zendaya on set as a “saving grace” and the “best thing that’s ever happened” to him. The couple confirmed their relationship back in 2021, after years of on-screen collaboration. With another Spider-Man sequel set to begin filming in summer 2025, fans eagerly anticipate the next installment of their story together, which is expected to be released in July 2026.
Beyond their on-screen partnership, both Holland and Zendaya have also been cast in an upcoming movie directed by renowned filmmaker Christopher Nolan. While Holland admitted he knows very little about the project, he expressed his excitement about working with such a prestigious director.
Holland also reflected on how he and Zendaya manage their fame together. He noted that their relationship is strengthened by their ability to relate to each other’s unique experiences in the spotlight. They strive to maintain some privacy, mentioning that they often look for quieter, more private locations when going out.
Despite the challenges fame brings, Holland emphasized that being recognized for their work is ultimately a wonderful experience. The couple’s resilient bond, combined with their professional achievements, has positioned them as an inspiring example in today’s entertainment industry.
