• Robert Pattinson said that Tom Holland wore a Spider-Man costume while shooting "The Lost City of Z."
• Pattinson said that he was 99% sure the 2016 movie was filmed before Holland was cast as the superhero.

Robert Pattinson said during an appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" that Tom Holland wore a Spider-Man costume before he was cast as the character while shooting "The Lost City of Z" in Colombia.

In 2015, It was officially announced that Holland would be portraying the famous superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Appearing first in the 2016 movie "Captain America: Civil War," Holland is the third actor to take on the web-slinger.

However, Pattinson told Kimmel on Wednesday that Holland was wearing a Spider-Man costume before he was even cast. After Kimmel joked about multiple superhero actors being English, Pattinson recalled that Holland was wearing the costume on the set of the 2016 movie "The Lost City of Z."

Pattinson said: "I think he hadn't even been cast as Spider-Man and he was wearing a Spider-Man outfit when I was shooting that movie. And I was like, 'He really manifested that part.' He was wearing a Spider-Man [outfit]. I swear to God that we were in Colombia and I'm 99% certain he wasn't cast yet."

When Kimmel asked whether it was a shirt or full costume, Pattinson insisted: "No, it looked like a proper costume and we were in the middle of nowhere in Colombia with no one around. No one witnessed this except for me."

Holland has had a habit of accidentally spoiling Marvel movies therefore it is possible he wore this after auditioning for the role.

Holland also said on "The Graham Norton Show" in 2021 that a "too honest" driver told him before his last audition that he would get the part.

"He goes, 'You know what kid? I think you're going to get it.' I'm like, 'Really? Why?' And I was excited to hear that," Holland said. "He goes, 'You know what? I think you're gonna get it because the kid that I just drove there, he is so good looking.'"

Pattinson portrays another superhero, Batman in its latest iteration from director Matt Reeves in "The Batman," which is out in theatres March 4.
