Tom Holland’s Spider-Man is swinging into controversy after leaked footage from the first day of shooting the new *Spider-Man* film went viral on Twitter.
The clips, shared on August 4, 2025, reveal the actor sporting a noticeable belly, prompting fans to dub him a "fatty" and flood the platform with memes. Critics didn’t hold back, with some suggesting Holland hit the gym and take a page from Hugh Jackman’s chiseled Wolverine playbook.
The backlash took an unexpected turn when a Twitter user chimed in with a wild behind-the-scenes revelation. Claiming to have attended a lecture by a visual effects specialist, the user disclosed that their job was to digitally slim down Holland’s midsection in every frame of *Avengers: Endgame*. The task, they said, took two grueling months, hinting at a recurring challenge for the actor’s superhero physique.
