SA EXCLUSIVE: We interview the new Spider-Man actor

London – Tom Holland, in a South African exclusive interview, revealed that he struggled with severe seasickness during the filming of his latest movie, In The Heart of The Sea.

The English actor told Channel24’s Leandra Engelbrecht during a sit-down interview in London that he struggled with seasickness “massively”.

"When we were out at sea in La Gomera, I had about two to three days of heavy seasickness," said Holland.

He added, "The funny thing is that the person with the worst seasickness was the toughest person of the crew, our stunt coordinator. She is the toughest person I ever met, and she was as sick as a dog."
