Tom Holland surprised a theater full of fans in Los Angeles Tuesday night to debut the new "Spider-Man: No Way Home" trailer. Their reaction left the "Spider-Man" actor in tears after its premiere.
Insider was on hand as the new trailer, confirming the return of several villains — from the Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield-era of "Spider-Man" films — led to cheers, screams, and a standing ovation by the end of its debut.
"Wow," the actor mouthed, smiling as he wiped tears from underneath his glasses.
"Do you want to watch it again?" Holland asked the crowd, who was chanting "Spidey."
Fans erupted in cheers prompting Holland to cue the trailer to run again. The star admitted he wasn't sure if he was actually allowed to ask for the trailer to be played a second time.
The Regal Theater in Sherman Oaks, California eventually played the trailer a second time, but not before Holland returned to the stage to answer a few fan questions at Sony's "Spider-Man: No Way Home" trailer event.
Still a bit emotional, Holland recalled what it has meant for the 25-year-old to play the role of the web-slinger.
"I got the part when I was 18," Holland started before stopping momentarily because he started to get a bit choked up.
Fans cheered him on, telling him, "We love you," and encouraging him to continue.
"I got cast when I was 18," Holland began again. "I remember I was in my garden and I got a call from [Marvel Studios' president] Kevin Feige and it changed my life forever."

Bigger than even "Avengers: Endgame"? That's a tall order. But it looks like "No Way Home" could deliver.
The second trailer for "No Way Home" teases worlds colliding in a giant multiverse event after a spell performed by Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) goes awry.
The spell leads to classic Spidey villains Doc Ock (Alfred Molina), the Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe), Electro (Jamie Foxx), Sandman (Thomas Haden Church), and the Lizard (Rhys Ifans) clashing with Holland's version of Peter Parker.
During the fan Q&A, Holland teased that there are even more surprises to come in "No Way Home."
"To see your reaction means that we're doing something right and trust me when I say that that is the tip of the iceberg," Holland said. "There is so much more in this movie ... You'll be on your feet. You'll be screaming and it's—"
Holland cut himself off before saying too much, adding, "I want to tell you everything, but I can't."
"Spider-Man: No Way Home" is in theaters on December 17.
