Tom Holland has found himself at the center of online scrutiny following a recent episode of his series "The Crowded Room," where he was depicted in a vulnerable situation with a male co-actor.

The clip from the AppleTV+ show quickly became viral, sparking a wave of criticism on Twitter with the hashtag "NotMySpiderman," as fans expressed their discontent.

Interestingly, some fans were surprised by the backlash, considering that previous "Spider-Man" actors Toby Maguire and Andrew Garfield had also portrayed gay characters in their on-screen roles.

In response to the negative reviews of the series, Holland, who is known for his role in the Marvel franchise, shared his perspective. He emphasized that the show's message aims to address various societal issues and highlights the importance of seeking help. According to Holland, asking for help is an act of bravery that should be celebrated rather than stigmatized.

He hopes that "The Crowded Room" can serve as a truthful, authentic, and sensitive representation of this important message.
