Tom Holland's Handshake Scene With Jake Gyllenhaal in 'Spider-Man: Far From Home' Took 50 Takes!

Tom Holland is one of the two stars on Entertainment Weekly‘s first ever digital cover and he’s opening up about everything from Spider-Man: Far From Home, and his new bromance with co-star Jake Gyllenhaal.

In the issue, the 23-year-old actor and Jake explain that the handshake you see in the film’s trailer actually took about 50 takes to get right. Turns out, Jake and Tom couldn’t stop laughing at the gesture for some reason.

“Tom was tired, and he just couldn’t keep it together,” Jake explains. “Every single time we would shake hands, he would start laughing, so I’d start laughing, and we both couldn’t stop laughing. That went on for about 30 minutes. It was about 45 to 50 takes, and it was a disaster.”

Tom adds, “I don’t even remember what was funny about it. There was something about the scene where Jake and I just could not keep a straight face.”
