10 Unusual Demands Made By Actors On Recent Movies
4. Tom Holland Refused To Wear A Wig - Spider-Man: No Way Home
While the perks that come with becoming a part of the sprawling Marvel Cinematic Universe no doubt outweigh the few negatives, that still hasn't stopped the odd superhero actor from putting their foot down when faced with a particularly frustrating demand from the super-studio.
In the case of Spider-Man star Tom Holland, said annoying request came in the form of his hairstyle coming into his most recent spell of web-slinging in No Way Home, with the actor being put in an awkward position on the back of changing up his weave for his Uncharted shoot prior to the MCU's third Spidey flick.
As the British Peter Parker actor would reveal to Esquire, his "cooler" Nathan Drake styling initially wasn't deemed suitable for the much nerdier Marvel personality. But upon being given a strange wig "that was just around the sides", Holland decided to push back as an actor for the first time in his life.
"I’m not f***ing wearing that wig. You can just . . . I’m going to have shorter hair and you’re going to have to deal with it," were Holland's unwavering orders. So, all of Marvel's additional surreal side-fuzz wig work ultimately went to waste.
What a damn shame.
