Tom Holland On Finally Being Invited To Writer's Room & His Spider-Puberty Pitch
In the same interview, Tom also talked about finally being invited to the writer's room ahead of Spider-Man: Brand New Day and revealed his pitch of "Spider-Puberty' that ultimately became the upcoming movie.
He said, "My pitch when I came to the table with it was called 'Spider-Puberty'. What happens if Peter Parker is losing control and things are changing? 'Spider-Puberty' was my tagline pitch to the studio - which was immediately shot down. But they liked the kernel of the idea and it grew into what we have in the movie now."
