Tom Holland and Zendaya, the beloved duo from the ‘Spider-Man’ franchise, have ignited anticipation among Marvel fans after sharing their experience of reading the draft script for ‘Spider-Man 4’. Appearing on the Rich Roll Podcast, Holland, who has portrayed Peter Parker/Spider-Man in several Marvel films, expressed his genuine excitement about the upcoming installment.

During the podcast, Holland revealed that he and Zendaya, known for her role as Michelle "MJ" Jones, recently sat down to read the script together. "We have a creative and a pitch and a draft, which is excellent", he shared.

Holland's connection to Spider-Man is a deeply personal one, and he remains committed to preserving the legacy of the character. "I owe my life and career to Spider-Man", he shared in a recent festival appearance, reinforcing his dedication to ensuring each film is "worth the while of the character."
