Hemsworth, 35, opened up about helping Holand, 22, out when it came to landing the role of Spider-Man.

“I mean, look, we worked on In the Heart of the Sea together, obviously, then through Avengers and as they were casting him for Spider-Man, I did what I could do and made a call,” Hemsworth told Entertainment Tonight at the premiere of Men in Black: International in New York City.

Hemsworth continued, “ said he’s one of the most talented people I’ve worked with and has such a big heart and appreciation.”

“I don’t know, we have a great friendship, it’s a good mutual respect,” the actor added.

That friendship forged in Hemsworth’s 2015 film allowed Holland to act opposite him in his first Marvel film, 2016’s Captain America: Civil War.

Holland returned for his own standalone film Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017, as well as Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.

He’s set to star in next month’s Spider-Man: Far from Home opposite Samuel L. Jackson and Jake Gyllenhaal.
