Hollywood veteran actor J.K. Simmons may be one of the few actors to appear across multiple Spider-Man eras, but there's one surprising connection he still hasn't made. The Oscar winner recently revealed that he has never met Tom Holland, despite reprising his role as J. Jonah Jameson in two of the actor's Marvel films.
JK Simmons on never meeting Tom Holland
JK Simmons explained that although he appeared in Spider-Man: Far From Home and Spider-Man: No Way Home, his scenes were filmed separately and he never crossed paths with Holland on set, as per the report of Entertainment Weekly. Speaking in interaction with Happy Sad Confused, JK Simmons said, "I have not met Tom Holland. Delightful guy, I'm told."
He also recalled that his return as J. Jonah Jameson in Far From Home came together at the last minute during post-production, making the cameo an unexpected addition to the MCU. Simmons further revealed that he is not part of the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day, putting to rest speculation about another appearance as the iconic newspaper editor.
