Tom Holland describes Zendaya's puzzled reaction to his 'Uncharted' stunts: 'What on Earth is this movie about?'
  • Holland said his explanation of a stunt in his new movie "Uncharted" left Zendaya puzzled.
  • He said Zendaya responded saying: "What on Earth is this movie about?"

Tom Holland has always had a love for doing his own stunts in his movies, and in his latest hit, "Uncharted," one scene had his girlfriend Zendaya flabbergasted.

"I was actually on set on 'Spider-Man' pitching the movie to Zendaya," Holland said on "Late Night with Seth Meyers" on Monday. "I was going through the film scene-by-scene, and I told her, 'Oh, there's this great bit where I get hit by a car out of a plane.' And she's like, 'I have to stop you there. What on Earth is this movie about?'"

The movie, based on the hit video game, topped the box office over the weekend. It stars Holland as Nate Drake who sets out on a globe-trotting adventure to find lost treasure with his partner Victor Sullivan (Mark Wahlberg).

But in one particular scene, Holland's Drake character finds himself in a pickle after falling out of a plane and getting hit by a car in mid-air.

Holland said that kind of stunt is what got him excited to do the movie. Having been a fan of the "Indiana Jones" movies growing up, he sees the action in "Uncharted" being in the same vein. So the idea of doing those stunts "myself was really exciting," he said.

"But then I had to do it, and I broke myself," he added.

"They tell you, 'Right, we're going to do this stunt where you're going to jump into the back of an airplane and then you get hit by a car out of the airplane.' And you're like, 'Wow, that sounds amazing!'" Holland said. "And then you shoot it and you're on take twelve and they are like, 'Can we do it again?' And you're like, 'No, I'm done.' It was tough."

"Uncharted," which also stars Antonio Banderas and Sophia Ali, is currently playing in theaters.
