What does Harry Holland do for a living?
According to Tom’s interview on The Graham Norton Show, Harry was also supposed to star in Spider-Man: No Way Home, but his scene didn’t make the final cut.
“We cast Harry and he’s on set. I go up to the stunt coordinator and I’m like, ‘Please, just whatever you do with the stunt, make it so he’s upside down.’ Bless him, he’s doing a really good job …” he said, adding, “But the icing on the cake – and I don’t think he actually knows this – we saw the film the other day and they’ve cut the scene. It’s not in the film.”
However, Harry’s real passion appears to be directing, and he has been behind six short films to date, including Roses for Lily and the aforementioned Last Call.
