Childhood and Early career

Holland – whose full name is Thomas Stanley Holland – was born on June 1, 1996 in Kingston, England. He attended Wimbledon College before going to Donhead School in south-west London.

Holland was discovered by Lynne Page, a Billy Elliot choreographer, when he was performing with his school at a dance festival. After eight months of audition, Holland was selected to play Michael Caffrey in Billy Elliot the Musical, making his West End debut in June 2008.

Career as an actor

In 2012, 17-year-old Holland, who learned gymnastics while starring in Billy Elliot the Musical and landed the lead role on the show in 2010, made his film debut opposite Naomi Watts and Ewan McGregor in The Impossible.

After three years, Holland was cast as Peter Parker (aka Spider-Man), a high school student with spider-like superpowers, in a six-movie deal with Marvel Studios in 2015. He made his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in 2016’s Captain America: Civil War before taking on the lead role as Spider-Man.
