Tom – who looked dapper in a collared navy jumper – also revealed he is relieved to finally be able to speak openly about the fact that former Spider-Men Toby Maguire and Andrew Garfield appear in Spider-Man: No Way Home.

He noted: ‘It’s actually quite nice to be able to say this now. We finally have the three Spider-Man’s sharing the screen. Playing Spider-Man can be quite alienating.’

Of his relationship with the two actors, Tom added: ‘To have that brotherhood was quite special.’

He also assured Holly and Josie that despite his global fame, he has remained grounded thanks to his tight-knit family.
