Tom Holland and Jon Bernthal have revealed how their friendship helped create a more humorous atmosphere

Tom Holland and Jon Bernthal have revealed how their friendship helped create a more humorous atmosphere while filming Marvel’s upcoming film Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

The two actors had previously worked together on Christopher Nolan’s highly anticipated epic The Odyssey. Holland described that experience as remarkable but demanding.

After completing work on Nolan’s film, the actors moved on to the new Spider-Man project. Holland said the change in atmosphere was immediate.

According to Holland, the pair spent around six weeks working in an improvised and relaxed environment. They frequently joked on set and looked for new ways to add humour to the upcoming movie.

Holland said their off-screen relationship also influenced the connection between their characters.

He explained that the relationship originally written in the script changed significantly during production. Holland credited Bernthal’s acting and creative input for helping shape the final dynamic.

Bernthal also spoke warmly about his long-standing relationship with Holland.

The actor said he had known Holland since the British star was 17. The two had even worked together on audition tapes for the Marvel Cinematic Universe before Holland became widely known for playing Spider-Man.

Bernthal praised Holland’s development as an actor and said he remained impressed by his personality.

He described Holland as kind, hardworking and grounded despite his enormous success in Hollywood.

The upcoming film will bring Holland’s Spider-Man together with Bernthal’s Punisher. Their partnership is expected to be one of the major attractions of the new Marvel project.

The actors’ comments suggest that their real-life friendship played an important role in developing the chemistry between their characters.
