“I just remember thinking, ‘There’s no way this lady’s going to read the robot’s lines opposite me,’ just because that would be ridiculous,” Tom shared. “I don’t remember what my line was, but it was, ‘Let’s get back to the falcon!’ and then this lady, bless her, would sit there with full commitment and was like…”

“I remember sort of saying, ‘You’re not actually going to do that, right?’ and she was like, ‘Well yeah, the robot’s part of the scene, he’s the character,’” he added. “I just got the giggles, because you know when you realize you’ve got something so wrong? I just couldn’t stop laughing.”

He did say though, that he doesn’t think that that is the reason why he didn’t get the role.

“I think John Boyega was just better for the role than me,” Tom said.

On his favorite souvenir from a movie set he’s gotten over the years, it’s actually something that was given to his younger brother Paddy.

“When Black Panther was coming out, Robert Downey Jr was making Doctor Doolittle in London, and he was staying down the road from where I live. He invited us to a screening of Black Panther at his house,” Tom says. “Paddy comes running in to the room and he’s holding the original Iron Man helmet, and Downey had given it to him as a gift.”

“That’s a really special one for me because I was lucky enough to join the MCU, but I joined it very late,” he continued. “That souvenir, that’s from the original film, that’s the birthplace of this incredible world that Kevin Feige and Marvel have created, and Downey and [Jon] Favreau kickstarted. To have something from that film is a huge honor.”

As for the upcoming Spider-Man: No Way Home, Tom said, “It’s the best Spider-Man movie that’s ever been made. It’s so fun and exciting, it’s emotional, it’s heartfelt. It’s been such an honor to play Spider-Man for all this time, and for it to come to this point. Honestly, he means the world to me.”
