Could we love him anymore!
Tom Holland has opened up about why he’s never hosted Saturday Night Live.
The 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' actor appeared on Amy Poehler‘s Good Hang podcast and finally answered the question we all wanted to know.
Speaking to Amy he said: "I’m heavily dyslexic, which is one of the reasons why—and I’d love to talk to you today about it, actually—is why I’ve never done SNL, I’m just so petrified at the concept of, like, trying to read something and they change."
While Amy added that "many dyslexics" must have hosted the show, Tom explained, "It’s just that, for me, I can read fine. But when I have to read out loud, it just becomes, a kind of… it’s like a mental block, and I can freeze."
"So, for me, my worst day at work is the read-through. At the read-through, I will really try and highlight everything and learn my lines ahead of time, so that I’m more kind of skimming it than I am reading."
"I’ve been really lucky that they’ve asked me a few times to do it, and the truth is that I’m actually just really scared at the prospect—I love the show, and I love the idea of having fun and making a fool of yourself in such a fun, creative way. It’s just that thing of the cue cards."
Amy then playfully highlighted: "You have to remember, there have been people that have hosted who have been fully on drugs, so I think you can do it."
