Actor Tom Holland expresses enthusiasm over his upcoming LEGO film
In the world of Hollywood, the journey of actors can often be a rollercoaster ride. For Tom Holland, 29, this has certainly been the case. His acting roles, while challenging due to his ADHD and dyslexia, have led him to some unforgettable experiences.
One such experience was the making of the upcoming LEGO short movie, "Never Stop Playing." Alongside him in this adventure was his co-star, Jacob Batalon, who plays Ned Leeds in the movie. The actors found a unique bond over their shared love for LEGO, a connection that helped them navigate the chaotic and exciting process of filming.
"Our lives were being flipped upside down during the making of this movie," Holland shared, reflecting on the whirlwind experience. The actors were tasked by the studio to build the LEGO Death Star themselves, a challenge that added an extra layer of excitement to the production.
Holland's favourite memory of LEGO comes from the movie Spider-Man: Homecoming. There's a scene where Ned drops the LEGO Death Star, a moment that brought a touch of humour to an otherwise intense movie.
As for the upcoming "Never Stop Playing," the actor is preparing for its release on July 31, 2026. His brothers, the twins Harry and Sam Holland, also joined the project, adding to the family affair. Many behind-the-scenes contributors, including lead producer Elaine Lee and production staff like Rachel, were also part of the project.
Holland finds a blank canvas slightly intimidating due to his ADHD and dyslexia. However, he notes the importance of playtime, a sentiment that is echoed in the title of the movie, "Never Stop Playing."
As Holland prepares for the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day in Scotland, he looks back on his journey with a sense of gratitude. The bond he formed with Batalon during their "crazy journey" is a testament to the power of shared passions and the magic of LEGO.
