In a recent interview with Backstage, Tom Holland has revealed one of his "audition horror stories".

Apparently, he once auditioned for Star Wars, reading for the role of Finn, but he messed it up because he couldn’t stop laughing at the person who was acting out a drone.

"I’ve had quite a few. I’ve read the wrong lines at the wrong audition before. I remember my audition for Star Wars, I was like four or five auditions in, and I think I was auditioning for John Boyega’s role.

I remember doing this scene with this lady, bless her, and she was just a drone. So I was doing all of this, like, “We gotta get back to the ship!” And she was going, “Bleep, bloop bloop, bleep bloop.” I just couldn’t stop laughing. I found it so funny. And I felt really bad, because she was trying really hard to be a convincing android or drone or whatever they’re called. Yeah, I obviously didn’t get the part. That wasn’t my best moment."

Of course, in the end, everything turned out fine because he got the role of Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
