Tom Holland and Zendaya Joke While Doing ‘Spider-Man’ Stunts With Their Height Difference
During an appearance on “The Graham Norton Show” this week, the two “Spider-Man: No Way Home” actors told a story about having to accommodate their height difference when performing stunts. dangerous, especially for a scene that Spider-Man, played in. by Holland, supposedly holding MJ (Zendaya) and swinging them up the bridge. Spider-Man had to gently place MJ on the bridge and then walk away, Zendaya explained on the show.
For the uninitiated, Zendaya is a few inches taller than Holland. And as a result, things turned out a little differently than planned.
“Because of our height difference, if we were on the same spot – we were attached – I would have landed before him. My feet obviously hit the ground before him,” she said.
Holland jumped in: “And I’m a superhero. I have to look cool,” he said, as Zendaya laughed. “And she would land…and my legs would swing from underneath me and then she would catch me.”
The end result, as the two graciously show off on the show, is that Zendaya looks more like a superhero than Holland, raising her legs as they both land.
“You are really lovely about it,” Zendaya noted of Holland. “You’ll be like ‘Oh my gosh, thanks.'”
