Tom Holland<\/a><\/strong>‘s spidey senses<\/a> aren’t fazed by anything\u2014not even a couple of drinks.<\/p>\n

While sharing his take on Spider-Man<\/em> rejoining Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe<\/a> during Wednesday’s episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live<\/em>, the British actor revealed that he played a major role in saving the franchise by reaching out to Disney<\/a><\/strong> CEO Bob Iger<\/strong>. Impressed by the 23-year-old’s professionalism over email following the shocking news, the media executive wanted to hop on a call with Tom. But of course, he picked the least opportune time to chat.<\/p>\n

“My family and I went to the pub quiz in our local, like, town,” he told host Jimmy Kimmel<\/a><\/strong>. “We’re doing a quiz and I’m, like, three pints in, right? I haven’t eaten much and I get a phone call from an unknown number. And I have a feeling, I’m like, \u2018I think this is Bob Iger\u2026but I’m drunk.'”<\/p>\n

Tom added, “You don’t give Bob Iger, like, a schedule. You’re like, \u2018Whenever, Bob.'”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Once he got some encouragement from his father, the Spider-Man: Far From Home<\/em> star<\/a> answered the call and received some good news.<\/p>\n

“But I basically just said thank you for the opportunity and he said, \u2018There is a world in which we can make this work,'” he continued. “And there was a bunch of phone calls back and forth from [Sony Pictures chairman] Tom Rothman<\/strong>\u2014he was really instrumental in the process. And it was really interesting for me to these, like, two studio heads, like, \u2018What do you think?'”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Comparing the situation to a custody agreement, Jimmy asked the Avengers: End Game<\/em> star<\/a> if the rumors were true that he cried on the phone. Tom said that they were spot-on. <\/p>\n

“I weeped,” he quipped. “No, I didn’t weep. Yeah, no, I was really emotional because I felt like it was all coming to an end.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Reflecting on Disney and MCU’s decision, Tom said that he felt they made the right choice in the end.<\/p>\n

“We had a really good plan with what we were gonna do with Sony,” he began. “The future of Spider-Man was still very bright. But it would have been a shame to take him out of the MCU, you know? That’s where he belongs and we’ve built such a strong character in that world and it would have been a shame to lose that. But, I’m just really glad that we managed to work it out.”<\/p>\n
