One of the fastest rising actors
Along with his work with Marvel and other small independent films, Tom Holland has been able to get roles outside of the superhero genre. He is going to star with fellow rising actress Daisy Ridley in the new Doug Liman movie called “Chaos Walking." The film is an adaption of the young adult novel written by Patrick Ness.
Holland has three big movies coming out this year. “Spider: Homecoming” will be the first big blockbuster that Holland stars in. He’ll be in the movie “Pilgrimage” along with stars Jon Bernthal and Richard Armitage, which will be released in August. The film is about 13th century monks trying to escort a relic across a dangerous Irish landscape.
Holland will also star in the new film titled “Current War." The film is about Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse trying to create sustainable energy to sell to the American people. That upcoming film also stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Michael Shannon, and Nicholas Hoult.
Each film has its own tone and genre, and Tom Holland will be very busy for the foreseeable future.
