Tom Holland's brother gatecrashes his interview at Spider-Man premiere

Tom Holland's teenage brother Patrick gatecrashed the actor's red carpet interview to share how proud he is of the Spider-Man star.

Last night (28Jun17) saw the Hollywood premiere of Spider-Man: Homecoming and the British Spider-Man actor took to the red carpet with his family in tow to celebrate his big night.

The actor took Mom Nikki, brothers Harry and Patrick, plus grandparents Tony and Tess, grandma Tina and his cousin Sydney.

Tom made a brief appearance in Captain America: Civil War (16) but this is his first standalone movie playing Spider-Man based on the Marvel comic series.

"I'm losing my mind right now," he smiled to Entertainment Tonight. "This is so surreal. My whole like, last three years has been leading up to this moment and we're here today and I can't believe it. I genuinely can't believe it."

But it was his 13-year-old sibling Patricl who stole the limelight after he butted in on the red carpet to heap praise on his big brother, "(I'm) very proud, yeah, I try to be like him," the youngster gushed.

Clearly wanting to follow in his brother's footsteps, he added: "I try I do a lot of auditions, but I never get them."

"Maybe you can play young Spider-Man," Tom playfully suggested. "Maybe if we do a flashback you can be baby Peter Parker." He also suggested Patrick could even play Spider-Man's "long lost brother."

"You know, if you go to a high school in Queens they're incredibly diverse," he explained when asked about the director's casting on the movie. "I think the amazing thing that (director) Jon Watts did was cast who was best for the role rather than who looked right, according to the comics."

"I really think he made an incredible decision. It's paid off," Tom added. "I'm so glad he made that decision. I've got friends for life and they're brilliant in the movie. "

Zendaya, Michael Keaton, Robert Downey Jr., Donald Glover, Marisa Tomei, Jacob Batalon and Laura Harrier also star in Spider-Man: Homecoming which begins hitting screens 7 July (17).
