While Tom Holland’s beloved on-screen persona is doing pretty well in the alternative cartooney universe in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse without him, the 27-year-old actor isn’t taking a vacation exactly, either.
In the Apple TV+ upcoming limited series The Crowded Room, Holland stars as Danny Sullivan, “a man who is arrested following his involvement in a shooting in New York City in 1979.” But what surprised fans the most is the fact that Sullivan’s mom is played by Shameless’ darling Emmy Rossum, 36, who is almost a decade Holland’s senior.
