Tom Holland has built a suave image through his charismatic appearance in Marvel’s Spiderman. After Tobey Macguire, he is the only Spiderman who meets the audience’s expectations.
Continuing the bewitching acrobats, Tom appeared in the movie adaptation of Uncharted. The movie, again, was a massive hit, and it works for the other parts too.
After building such a virile image in audiences’ minds, it is fairly challenging to get accepted for somewhat fluid roles like a gay personality.
Tom Holland’s recent stint in Apple TV’s The Crowded Room has created a meme fest. In a recent show episode, Holland dressed as his character’s alter ego, Ariana, and was seen romancing a guy character, Jerome. The scene has opened gates for the trollers and members who have flooded the Internet with all sorts of jokes about the actor. The episode we are talking about aired on July 14 on Apple TV.
What Is the Crowded Room All About?
Its world of feelings and experiences, The Crowded Room, beckons, ready to engulf you. The show is based on a novel called The Minds of Billy Milligan by Daniel Keyes. Tom is playing the central part in the story, as is Danny Sullivan. The show takes you back to 1979, when the New York shooting occurred, and shows how Danny was connected to it.
The show premiered on June 9 and is an endearingly mind-bending drama that has received good reviews. Along with Holland, Amanda Seyfried and Emmy Rossum star in this psychological thriller. So far, eight episodes have aired on the platform, and it is speculated to be a ten-episode show.
What Was Tom’s Reaction to the Gay Encounter?
The actor hasn’t on record said anything about the particular gay adventure. However, in a recent interview with Jay Shetty, Tom spoke about the after-effects of the show. He said –
“The show did break me. There did come a time where I was sort of like, ‘I need to have a break.’ I disappeared. I went to Mexico for a week and had some time on a beach and lay low. And I’m now taking a year off.”
The actor took a long break to come out of character. The after-effects of the dark thriller significantly impact the actor’s life. However, now that Tom is back in the industry, he reads scripts for the following projects.
Elijah Jones, who was in the scene with Tom, has a humorous take on the scene. He tweeted –
The Internet is unforgivably trolling Tom for his brave step. They haven’t left Tom’s current girlfriend and Spiderman co-star Zendaya and made memes about her reaction to the scene.
