Tom Holland Shares the Perks of Working Alongside Girlfriend Zendaya

Hollywood star Tom Holland said that working with his girlfriend Zendaya has its own perks.

The actor appeared on a Christmas-themed episode of the 'Dish' podcast and was asked what it's like acting opposite his longtime girlfriend Zendaya, reports 'Variety'.

The two have starred in three 'Spider-Man' movies and will spend much of 2025 on film sets together as the stars of a fourth 'Spider-Man' movie and of Christopher Nolan’s mysterious new film.

When asked about being Zendaya’s co-star, he quipped, “Studios love it. One hotel room. Separate drivers. We’re not crazy now. Listen it’s work, alright?”.

Oh God, yeah. It's a saving grace. Yeah, best thing that's ever happened to me", he added on a more serious note. "It's just that perfect thing when you're on set and a director will give you a note that maybe you don't agree with, or I know that she doesn't particularly like, and it's just that, like, familiar glance at each other of like, can't wait to talk about that later".

According to 'Variety', Zendaya earlier praised Vanity Fair while talking about working with Holland, saying it's not weird to be scene partners together.

It's actually strangely comfortable," Zendaya said. "It's like second nature, if anything. You feel extra safe with the person you're acting beside. I love working with him. He's so talented, and so passionate about what he does. He always gives things one thousand percent, even if he's absolutely worn down. I really appreciate that about him. It feels pretty normal. That's how we met. Literally, at a chemistry read".

Holland and Zendaya will star along with Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Charlize Theron and many more, in Nolan's new release, which is going to start on July 17, 2026 from Universal Pictures.

Holland said that he hasn't read the script of his movie yet.

"It's hush-hush", says Tom. "He gives a loose pitch on what it is. He'll state what it is when he decides to do it.

The actor previously told 'Good Morning America' that Nolan offering him a part “was the phone call of a lifetime”. He added, “It was reminiscent of getting the call about ‘Spider-Man’ 10 years ago. It’s an amazing thing for me. I’m super proud and I’m really, really excited".
