Marvel: How Drunk Tom Holland Saved ‘Spider-Man’
Tom Holland visited Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! and Tom discussed a variety of things, including about working with the Russo brothers to making the movie Spies in Disguise with Will Smith. But, the highlight of the interview was his recollection of the call he had (three pints in) with Disney CEO Bob Iger to save Spider-Man.
“I saved Spider-Man” Holland said, to cheers and applause.

Sony’s chief communications officer Robert Lawson echoed Feige’s excitement over the deal. He said:
