Tom Holland – OMG Check It Out ! https://omgcheckitout.com Thu, 09 Jan 2025 13:07:35 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.3 Tom Holland Circling Lead Role in Legal Thriller “The Partner” https://omgcheckitout.com/tom-holland-circling-lead-role-in-legal-thriller-the-partner/ Fri, 10 Jan 2025 06:03:00 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=42551 Tom Holland took a step back from acting in recent years, but his epic comeback seems to be upon us! Shortly after joining Christopher Nolan’s next film, the Spider-Man star is circling the lead role in another major project – the John Grisham adaptation The Partner.

This adaptation draws inspiration from Grisham’s 1997 novel The Imitation Game, which centered on a junior partner at a law firm who decides to fake his own death and flee to Brazil after stealing $90 million from a wealthy client. Graham Moore adapted the novel for Universal Pictures, and they’re yet to confirm Holland’s casting.

Holland is expected to produce this film through his production label Billy17, which he recently founded with his brother Harry Holland and Will South. The company signed a production deal with Sony Pictures following its launch last month and announced they’re plotting a mystery film titled Burnt as their first project.

Holland took a one-year hiatus from acting after starring in The Crowded Room, but he’s gearing up for his epic comeback. He recently landed a key role in Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey opposite Zendaya, Matt Damon, Rob Pattinson, and Anne Hathaway. He’s also in negotiations with Marvel to return as Peter Parker/Spider-Man in his fourth standalone film and potential Avengers sequels.

“Spider-Man: No Way Home” Becomes Sixth Highest Grossing Movie Ever https://omgcheckitout.com/spider-man-no-way-home-becomes-sixth-highest-grossing-movie-ever/ Wed, 26 Jan 2022 06:13:19 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=39145 Spider-Man: No Way Home has been breaking one box office record after another since its release, and its latest might just be the most impressive one yet. After about a month in the theaters, the latest installment in the MCU became the sixth-highest grossing movie of all time.

No Way Home managed to earn $1.69 billion at the worldwide box office, passing Jurassic World with $1.67 billion and The Lion King with $1.66 billion to secure its latest record. It’s highly unlikely it will soar any higher because the top five films—Avatar, Avengers: Endgame, Titanic, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and Avengers: Infinity War—all crossed the $2 billion mark.

We still wouldn’t count No Way Home out since it’s been breaking one box office after another since its release in mid-December. Needless to say, it’s the highest-grossing pandemic-era film, and the first to gross over $1 billion since COVID-19 started. It’s also the fourth-highest-grossing film in the United States and Canada, with $721 million at the domestic box office so far.

No Way Home explores the aftermath of Spider-Man: Far From Home, where Peter Parker’s secret identity was revealed to the world. He asks Doctor Strange to help him reverse the past, but his botched spell ends up opening up the multiverse and inviting old villains into Peter’s world to dire consequences.

Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley’s “Chaos Walking” Sets a Release Date https://omgcheckitout.com/tom-holland-and-daisy-ridleys-chaos-walking-sets-a-release-date/ Mon, 10 Feb 2020 06:33:36 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=36837 After a long wait, Lionsgate has finally announced a January 22, 2021 release date for the science-fiction film starring Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley.

Chaos Walking, which is based on Patrick Ness’ Chaos Walking: The Knife of Never Letting Go, started shooting in 2017 and it was supposed to be released on March 1, 2019, but the opening was set back due to reshoots.

According to Lionsgate, the dystopian film is about “two unlikely companions [who] embark on a perilous adventure through the badlands of an unexplored planet as they try to escape a dangerous and disorienting reality; where all inner thoughts are seen and heard by everyone.”

Holland (Spider-Man: Far From Home) and Ridley (Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker) will play lead characters, Todd Hewitt and Viola Eade. Cynthia Erivo, Mads Mikkelsen, David Oyelowo, Demián Bichir, and Nick Jonas will also star in the film.

Multiple outlets report that Knight, who made his directorial debut with last year’s Bumblebee, could be departing the film starring Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg. 

Production on the action-adventure film, based on the PlayStation video game series, could be facing a delays due to Holland’s scheduling constrains. Holland’s Spiderman role could push Uncharted back from its current December 18th, 2020 date. In that case, Knight is unlikely to stick around.

Holland and Mark will remain attached to the project.

“Spider-Man: Far From Home” Takes Us to Post-Endgame World https://omgcheckitout.com/spider-man-far-from-home-takes-us-to-post-endgame-world/ Thu, 09 May 2019 10:58:10 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=31568 If you still haven’t had a chance to see Avengers: Endgame, you should probably skip the new trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home, as well. This movie takes place in the world after Marvel’s latest smash hit and deals with its aftermath.

Fans of this record-breaking franchise were convinced that Endgame serves as the final movie of MCU’s phase 3, but all hell broke loose after Marvel bosses reveled one tiny piece of information they’ve been hiding from us all along. Far From Home will actually serve as the end of third phase, and take us to post-Endgame world.

Entire new trailer is actually one big spoiler, and it shows Peter Parker going on a school trip to London and having his vacation ruined by Nick Fury, who recruits him to to team up with Mysterio and fight bad guys who arrived from another dimension.

Spider-Man: Far From Home will be released on July 2, and it stars Tom Holland, Samuel L. Jackson and Jake Gyllenhaal.

Tom Holland, Russo Brothers Reunite for Heist Movie “Cherry” https://omgcheckitout.com/tom-holland-russo-brothers-reunite-for-heist-movie-cherry/ Fri, 15 Mar 2019 06:58:37 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=30473 If you’re thinking Tom Holland’s collaboration with the Russo Brothers will be over after Avengers: Endgame – think again! The duo just cast the young actor in their next project Cherry.

This heist movie will be based on Nico Walker’s debut novel of the same name. It’s a fictionalized account of his life and follows a former Army medic who turned to robbing banks to pay for his increasing medical bills and cope with his PTSD.

Tom Holland is tapped for the lead role in Cherry and this won’t be his first time working with Anthony and Joe Russo. They were responsible of casting him as Spider-Man in Captain America: Civil War, and knew he’s the right choice from the get-go.

“We did two screen tests with the character. We were pretty vocal about who we wanted for the part. He’s fantastic. Amazing. It’s like Christian Bale in Empire of the Sun. Rarely do you see a kid carry a movie like that,” said Joe Russo.

Holland went on to reprise this role in additional four films – including Avengers: Endgame and Spider-Man: Far From Home, which are yet to come out. He’s currently attached to a series of promising projects outside the MCU, including The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle and Chaos Walking.

The first trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home is here and summer couldn’t come soon enough.

This superhero flick was filmed in London, Prague, and Venice, and it sees Peter going on a school trip with his classmates. Needless to say, all hell breaks loose after Nick Fury shows up to recruit him to fight elemental creations that are tearing up London.

The first trailer also offers a first look at Jake Gyllenhaal as Mysterio, but fans are left wondering if he’s friend or foe. We’ll get the answer to this – and many more questions – when Spider-Man: Far From Home hits theaters on July 5.

“At Pixar, we try to create stories that come from some kind of personal truth,” director Dan Scanlon said in a statement. “This film was inspired by my own relationship with my brother.”

Scanlon and producer Kori Rae couldn’t be happier with the stellar cast tapped to take part in the production.

“Chris brings equal parts huge heart and fantastic humor to his character,” said Rae, and Spencer “can do it all. We’re especially excited about the depth as well as humor that she brings to her character.”

Holland “has an infectious charm and sincerity that makes you root for him in every character he plays,” said Scanlon said and added that “there is no one funnier than Julia. But she also brings a warmth and loving side to her character.”

Onward is scheduled to hit theaters March 6, 2020.
