A lot of fans were disappointed when Tom Holland teased a huge announcement, only for it to turn out to be the launching of some non-alcoholic beer, but this new piece of news seems to make up for that.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Holland has been cast to star alongside Matt Damon in Christopher Nolan’s next movie. No details have been revealed about the movie, but it’s said to be a period piece, and a rumor is going around that it could have something to do with vampires.
This should be considered a huge win for Holland, since fans have started to notice that he’s been in kind of a slump whenever he’s not working on a Spider-Man movie. Don’t get them wrong, they still think Holland is talented, but after duds like Cherry and Uncharted, people are starting to doubt whether Holland’s agent has the juice to get him into better projects.
I do have to admit though, Holland was great in Netflix’s Devil All the Time movie that came out a couple of years ago:
For now, Nolan’s rep is at an all-time high, thanks to the phenomenon that was Barbenheimer last year. With Nolan’s last movie being a serious period drama, some think that he’s ready to once again put on his action hat and deliver a Tenet-level flick with Holland and Damon as the leads.
At some point, I’d actually love to see another stab at the concept of Inception.
Nolan’s next movie starring Holland and Damon is set to release in theatres in July 17, 2026.
