The A-list duo behind Marvel's cinematic Spider-Man, Tom Holland and Zendaya, have swung into action as passionate fans of the hit video game series. In an exclusive chat with IGN to hype up their upcoming flick 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day', they unleashed their love for Insomniac Games' creation, calling it 'absolutely sensational'.
With Holland praising the games and Zendaya admitting she's not exactly a natural gamer but willing to give it a go, the on-screen pair relived a thrilling moment from 'Marvel's Spider-Man 2', where MJ turns into Scream after getting infected with a Symbiote. The actress quipped about her determination to conquer this tricky section solo, even enlisting Holland's help when she got stuck.
This isn't the first time Holland has drawn inspiration from the games - he previously incorporated an iconic move from Marvel's Spider-Man into 2021's 'No Way Home', showcasing the seamless crossover between the big screen and digital worlds.
The actors' glowing endorsement sparked a warm invite from Insomniac Games, who offered them a studio tour to get behind-the-scenes of their game development process. They tweeted their excitement to show Holland and Zendaya around and share the magic of creating these beloved games.
