Here's how Tom Holland saved Spider-Man in the MCU
When Sony threatened to break its deal with Marvel and withdraw Spider-Man from the MCU, fans were literally shocked to learn that they would lose one of their favorite characters for Sony and Marvel's inability to reach an agreement. It was far away 2019 and Spider-Man was really in danger of leaving the Marvel Universe.
How Tom Holland saved Spider-Man
Speaking with CinemaBlend, Tom Holland recounted a tragicomic anecdote that, according to him, helped save the Spider-Man deal between Sony and Marvel. In fact, one evening, during a quiz night at the local pub, Tom Holland received a call from then Disney CEO Bob Iger and the two talked about the future of the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.Mi I was in a pub quiz. I am pretty drunk because I was really upset that I wasn't going to be in the MCU again. Then I got a call from a number 310; I knew Bob Iger would call me but I thought he would do it a few days earlier. So I thought he had given up on the call, but then I got one and it was him.
The actor, therefore, wanted to speak with an open heart:
Bob and I had a good chat about my passion for the character. I think I've talked about the importance of Spider-Man in the MCU and what I can offer with my knowledge and skills. I think my arguments convinced him and he really understood in that conversation how much I love this character and how much I believe in him. Bob subsequently opened a bigger dialogue with [Sony Pictures president] Tom Rothman and [Sony Pictures CEO] Tony Vinciquerra and they managed to strike a deal.
