Tom Holland Reveals How He Channeled His Inner Spider-Man to Stop a Grocery Store Fight: “Spider-Man is telling me to calm down”

Tom Holland recently proved he doesn’t just play a hero on screen—he acted like one in real life . While shopping in Los Angeles, the ‘Spider-Man’ star stepped in to defuse a heated argument between two men, using his charm and quick thinking to bring peace to the situation.

Holland revealed for ‘Men’s Health’ that he was at a Whole Foods in Los Angeles when a fight broke out between two men right behind him. He quickly stepped in and grabbed one of the men, pulling him away from the confrontation.

Holland noticed the man recognized him and, despite being angry, seemed to calm down, as if Spider-Man himself was telling him to relax.

They’re like going at it, right behind me. I can see that he’s recognized me immediately, and you could see the wheels turning, like, I’m really angry, but Spider-Man is telling me to calm down. So, yeah, I go to the supermarket.

This is not the first time that Holland publicly showcased that he shared some traits with the popular superhero as the actor was recently seen defending Zendaya from the paparazzi.

Despite his worldwide fame, the actor says however that he is always looking for ways to lead a normal life outside of acting, but for now, he’s passionate about his work as Spider-Man.

He mentioned that while a normal life seems distant, once he has kids, he plans to step away from movies to focus on golfing and fatherhood. His future plans involve disappearing from the spotlight to enjoy a quiet, family-focused life.
