@patel.aminataTom Holland addressed his 2021 quote to GQ in which he said, "If I'm playing Spider-Man after I'm 30, I've done something wrong." He explained that the remark made him pause when he saw it again lately as he tried to recall his original intention. The core idea, he noted, is that he would love to hand the role over to someone else, though he has not managed to do so yet. Discussions on the topic happen frequently at the studio. As a result, he suggested he might need to update the quote to refer to age 37 instead. He also speculated that he could have been attempting to put pressure on Sony by making them worry he would not return for Spider-Man 4, especially after securing a fresh deal. In the end, he admitted uncertainty about his exact mindset at the time and said it might have formed part of a deliberate plan to generate some anxiety.
