OVERCROWDED ROOMTom Holland Takes a Year Off Acting After ‘Difficult’ Experience Making New Series

British actor Tom Holland, known for his role as Spider-Man, has announced that he will be taking a break from acting for a year. In an interview with Extra, Holland, 27, revealed that he had a “difficult” experience while working on his Apple TV+ series, The Crowded Room. Despite the difficulties, he expressed his enjoyment of the project and his appreciation of the “learning curve of becoming a producer.”

“I’m no stranger to hard work. I’ve always lived by this idea that hard work is good work. And I really enjoyed it,” he said. “But then again, the show did break me. There did come a time where sort of was like, ‘I need to have a break.”

“I am excited to see how it turns out, and I feel like our hard work wasn’t in vain,” he added.
