Multiple outlets report that Tom Holland learns Robert Downey Jr. is returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Doctor Doom ahead of the studio’s public announcement, and he tells his wife Zendaya immediately. Variety, NDTV, and Times of India all describe Holland as having a history of accidentally sharing Marvel news early, referencing his reputation for spoilers. According to the reports, after Holland finds out about the casting and role—before Marvel makes it public—he contacts Zendaya right away rather than keeping it only for himself. Times of India adds that Holland received the information during a call from Downey Jr., and then shared it with Zendaya quickly. Variety similarly says Holland tells Zendaya “right away” after discovering the news. The outlets also note that Marvel is withholding additional plot details, and Holland indicates he is trying to stay informed about how the news affects his own character. While the coverage focuses on Holland’s early disclosure to Zendaya, all accounts agree on the core points: the early knowledge, the immediate update to Zendaya, and Holland’s established reputation for spoilers.
