Tom Holland, the acclaimed actor, has revealed his intention to retire from acting upon starting a family. In a candid interview with Men's Health, Holland stated that he won't pursue movie roles once he becomes a parent.
The 28-year-old actor, currently dating Zendaya, emphasized his dedication to fatherhood and a potential transition to golf, indicating a clear prioritization of family over his lucrative acting career.
Holland previously took a year-long break from acting in 2023, citing the demanding schedule of his role in the Apple TV+ series The Crowded Room as the reason. He described the experience as "breaking" him, highlighting the toll of rigorous work commitments.
Meanwhile, Holland is back in the spotlight, set to star in Christopher Nolan's upcoming adaptation of Homer's The Odyssey. The film, scheduled for release in July 2026, will also feature Zendaya, Anne Hathaway, Matt Damon, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong'o, and Charlize Theron. This marks a collaborative effort between the two actors, who previously starred together in multiple Spider-Man films.
In a lighthearted discussion of their on-screen chemistry, Holland jokingly attributed the studios' preference for casting them together to a shared hotel room, "Separate drivers," he clarified, emphasizing the actors' professional composure. He further emphasized the profound synergy he and Zendaya share on set, valuing their ability to thoughtfully discuss directorial feedback.
