Tom Holland learned from Zendaya
Tom Holland says he learned from Zendaya, his co-star in Spider-Man: No Way Home,how to deal with fame.
“It’s been so good for my mental health to have her in my life,” the 25-year-old actor tells GQ.
According to Holland, Zendaya is a role model for young children. “If someone comes to her for a photo, they can always do so. While my first reaction was always: why are you talking to me? Leave me alone.”
He learned from the 25-year-old actress that fame is also a part of his work. Nowadays he laughs in photos, hugs fans and does meet-and-greets. “I sometimes have to remind myself that the role of Spider-Man means more than just work.

There are children who are bullied at school and they get joy from the character Spider-Man. And the moment they meet me, I’m Spider-Man.”
Holland and Zendaya were captured kissing on camera last summer. The actor does not want to say too much about their possible love affair. “One of the disadvantages of fame is that you have almost no privacy anymore. Moments that you think you share with one person are suddenly shared with the whole world.
I’ve always wanted to keep my private life to myself as much as possible, because people already see me so much anyway.”
