TOM HOLLAND has spilled that he didn’t sit on one major Marvel secret for long — he says he told Zendaya “right away” that Robert Downey Jr. Is coming back.

The actor said he learned the news early in connection with “Avengers: Doomsday”, and that he quickly passed it on to Zendaya once he knew.

Beyond that, details stay tightly under wraps in the material provided — but Holland’s admission gives a rare peek at how quickly big franchise news can travel, even within the Marvel family.

Robert Downey Jr.’s return is tied here specifically to “Avengers: Doomsday”, and Holland’s comments make it clear he was in the loop before the wider public.

For fans, it’s also a reminder that Spider-Man’s corner of the MCU remains linked to the broader Avengers world — at least enough for Holland to be hearing key intel ahead of time.
