Tom Holland goes viral protecting Zendaya from photographers

 

 

 

Tom Holland went viral this week for defending his girlfriend Zendaya from photographers in NYC.

 

 

The Spider-Man star, 28, who posed up with his actress love, 28, in matching ensembles at his event launch Thursday, showed off his chivalrous side as he kept Zendaya close behind him as they stepped out to a wall of paparazzi.

 

Holding her hand and placing a protective hand on her back, the Brit star said: ‘Guys watch out!’ as the couple tried to get to a car.

 

Fans quickly took to social media to brand him a ‘king’ with one writing: ‘wasn’t fully familiar with Mr. Holland’s game but this is a MAN’.

 

The pair were making a rare public appearance at a party promoting Holland’s new non-alcoholic beer BERO.

 

The couple’s stylish appearance on Thursday comes on the heels of Tom’s announcement that he will reprise his role as Spider-Man in the fourth film, though he left fans guessing about Zendaya’s return.

 

However, he left fans hanging by not confirming whether Zendaya would be reprising her role as MJ.

The chemistry between the duo first sparked on set while filming 2017’s Spider-Man: Homecoming, and fans are eagerly hoping to see their beloved characters reunite once more.

 

At the Critics Choice Awards 2024, Tom shared several rare comments about his and Zendaya’s private life and how they revisit the film.

 

Speaking to Extra, Tom said: ‘Zendaya and I will, every now and then, watch Spider-Man 1 and reminisce about being 19 and making those movies again.

 

‘I love those movies, and I love savoring those moments, so I try not to watch them as often as I would maybe like to because it’s so special. It’s such a luxury, such a gift to be able to sit down and sort of relive your youth.’

 

He also divulged that the Euphoria actress supports him in his career, explaining that she watched his series The Crowded Room frequently and gave him feedback.

 

He and Zendaya finally went public with their relationship in 2021 but it is thought that they began dating as early as 2017.

 

As for the delay on the third season of Zendaya’s Euphoria, the show’s creator, writer and director Sam Levinson, was busy with much of 2022 shooting his series The Idol, which starred The Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp.

 

It was only in January of this year that HBO and Max Content CEO Casey Bloys confirmed to Deadline that Levinson had begun writing Euphoria season three scripts.
