Zendaya and Tom Holland adorably sang Whitney Houston at the BNP Paribas Open

Just the two most delightful people.

Tom Holland and Zendaya are just too cute. The pair of actors met on the set of Marvel’s 2017 Spider-Man: Homecoming, and started dating in July of the same year. The couple is utterly adorable, even if the amount of time spent in the spotlight is not high.

The Dune: Part Two star and Peter Parker actor made an appearance at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, California over the weekend, sitting together and taking in the tournament. With Zendaya starring in the upcoming tennis-based movie, Challengers, it tracks that the duo made it court side.

Caught on camera, Holland and Zendaya adorably bantered with each other and joined in a chorus of “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” by Whitney Houston.

Tom Holland disappointed fans by not performing Umbrella during Rihanna’s Super Bowl halftime show

Any excuse to watch the Tom Holland performance of Umbrella is a good one.

Rihanna’s return to the stage after seven long years was a welcome one as the singer entertained fans nationwide during the Super Bowl halftime performance. Not only was it an amazing set, Rihanna chose the most epic way to announce her second pregnancy.

Overall, fans were elated with the entire production. There was just one thing — or person, rather — that they thought was missing. While there was a significant amount of speculation around whether or not a special guest would join RiRi on stage, Tom Holland was a popular pick for dark horse candidate to reprise his incredible performance of “Umbrella” from “Lip Sync Battle.”

Holland, who is better known as Peter Parker/Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, delivered one of the greatest pop culture moments of the last decade while reminding everyone that, yes, he absolutely CAN dance.

It was highly unlikely that the web-slinger would have made an appearance in Glendale, but that didn’t stop fans from expressing their disappointment online. That’s just how iconic that video is.

Tom Holland would like to star in a ‘dark’ Jak and Daxter movie

From A24, no less.

Everybody has that one brilliant pitch for their dream  video-game-to-film adaptation, and Tom Holland’s might be the best yet. Or the bleakest, depending on who you ask.

During an interview with GameSpot, the Uncharted  star  explains that he would love to work on another  Naughty Dog classic, but probably not the one you’d expect.

“I would like to make a Jak and Daxter  movie, and I would play Jak,” Holland said. “But I would make it A24 so it was really weird and dark.”

A24 is the independent film company that brought us The Lighthouse, and Hereditary — not everyone’s first choice to adapt a cartoony action platformer. But hey, Holland is the movie star here, so who am I to question his choice.

Check out the clip of Holland talking about his curious pitch for yourself below.

Funnily enough, Naughty Dog’s other colossal franchise, The Last of Us, is getting an inky TV series from HBO. That franchise is pretty dark already, so there’s not much room to take the somber tone even further. Of course, Holland is only playing up his answer for laughs, but to be honest, the idea of Midsommar’s  production staff making a hyper-realistic Daxter sounds downright hilarious and something that should absolutely happen. After all, worse video game adaptations  are already out there.

Every Spider-Man movie, ranked before ‘No Way Home’ hits theaters

The only ranking of Spider-Man you’ll ever need.

The latest installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe drops Thursday as they wrap Tom Holland’s seemingly first trilogy as the iconic Peter Parker in Spider-Man: No Way Home. When we last saw the webbed wonder, reporter J. Jonah Jameson outed Spider-Man’s identity, causing all sorts of problems.

Early returns have praised the flick, but you can rest assured that this is a spoiler-free zone for the new release. If you haven’t seen any of the other Spider-Man entries — and you don’t want them spoiled — bookmark this tab and take care of that before reading on.

Before Peter, MJ, Ned, and Doctor Strange are back on the big screen, I’m going to rank the previous seven installments of live-action Spider-Man  (meaning this list does not include the nearly flawless animated Into the Spiderverse) based on personal preference. Let’s get to it!

Tom Holland claims the Uncharted movie ‘broke’ him

No pain, no gain?

Shooting the upcoming Uncharted  film was incredibly difficult for Tom Holland.

During an  interview with GQ, Holland revealed that the film adaptation of PlayStation’s hit action-adventure game was an enormous physical undertaking.

“I never realized how lucky I am that Spider-Man wears a mask because when he’s bouncing around and flying from buildings, that’s all CG. In Uncharted, it’s just me in a henley and cargo pants,” Holland said via GQ. “That film absolutely broke me.”

Amazingly, the actor only had three days between wrapping up filming on  Uncharted  in Berlin before he immediately flew over to Atlanta to work on  Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Check out the Uncharted movie for yourself below.

Holland went on to mention he had developed tendinitis while working on Uncharted. It’s nothing severe, just a sign of the physicality his roles usually require.

“I was going to the gym in the morning like, ‘Oh, my God, I’ve must have torn something in my leg,’ and the guys were like, ‘You haven’t, you’re just tired and you’re getting older,'” Holland said  via GQ.

The big-screen adaptation of Uncharted  is coming on Feb. 22, 2022, which is around the same time that the  Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection  is allegedly releasing too.
