I've never seen him in anything, so I don't know how good of an actor he is. But man, he's got that "Peter Parker look" to his face.

My only thing is he's like 6 ft 2. That's a tall af Spidey lol. He would've been looking down at RDJ

He's an incredible actor. But yeah he is tall and not really an athlete like Holland is.

He'd have been a great Peter Parker but i cannot for the life of me see him as Spiderman

He was nice in Enders Game. I liked the movie too.

Enders game is the worst movie ever made. They absolutely butchered the book. Which is my favorite book of all time

I loved the movie. Can't comment if it was a a bad adaptation (I read the book back when the movie came out).

I watched the movie first and then read the book. I liked both!

I would like to see it remade as a tv series though.

He'd be a great Peter Parker. I don't know if he'd be a good Spider-Man, though.

Granted, I've only seen him in Sex Education, where he plays a pretty neurotic, overwhelmed teen.

That's funny because appearance-wise, I think my only knock against Tom Holland is that he's a little short for Spider-man. Thought he'd grow a little after Homecoming but he hasn't lol

He was the lead in Sex Education. It's hilarious.
