Tom Holland is playing a gay man in a new TV show … but it’s not sitting well with some of his ‘Spider-Man’ fans while others are defending him.
Holland — who recently announced he will return to the superhero role in “Spider Man 4” — came under fire on social media Friday for his part in the Apple TV series, “The Crowded Room.”
In one scene, Holland and another man have steamy sex, which sparked the online outrage.
One person tweeted, “Tom Gone Wrong #NotMySpiderMan.”
Another wrote, “LMAOOOOOOO dis is really somebody’s favorite Spider-Man”
It’s probably a mix of unabashed homophobia and people who think only a gay actor should play a gay role.

But some of Tom’s fervent supporters responded to the online haters by arguing previous ‘Spider-Man’ actors had taken similar LGBTQ roles, such as Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield.
One admirer wrote, “For the people commenting on Tom Holland’s scene on his new show « the crowded room », take a look at the others Spider-Man actors…It’s called acting.”
