Sharjah24 – Reuters: The stars of "Spider-Man: No Way Home" Tom Holland and Zendaya attended a photocall in London on Sunday (December 5).

The pair talked of their love for what they called the Spider-Man 'family', and Zendaya, who plays Mary Jane in the film, said she was happy to have met Holland while working on the movie.

"I mean one of the most special parts of all this is the fact I got to meet Tom Holland. So I am incredibly forever grateful to 'Spiderman' for that. And he's obviously very talented and a lovely person," Zendaya said.

The film's box office pre-sales in the UK are already high, but Holland said the pandemic meant the pressure for the film to succeed was different this year.

"People might not feel comfortable going to the theatre and that's ok, if that's your prerogative I will support that," he said.

Holland also officially confirmed that he will portray legendary song and dance man Fred Astaire in an upcoming Sony biopic.

"I am playing Fred Astaire. The script came in a week ago. I haven't read it yet. They haven't given it to me," he said.

The plot of "No Way Home" revolves around Spider-Man's true identity being revealed for the first time.

It hits cinema screens in the UK on December 15th.
