So, Idk about you guys, but I was kind of upset when I first heard that there was going to be a new Spider-Man film.
That being said, I tried to stay open-minded and give the new guy, Tom Holland, a chance.
For one thing, he has a British accent (always a win, if you ask me). But he is also super loyal to his fans.
He was fantastic in his other roles, such as In the Heart of the Sea and Captain America: Civil War.
Oh, and here are six more reasons if you need them.
But, what really convinced me he's amazing was his performance on Spike TV's Lip Sync Battle.

He danced to Rihanna's "Umbrella" and it was FUCKING 👏 PHENOMENAL👏.
I had seen him dance before. Last year, he did the "Typo Challenge" with Zendaya and choreographer, Deja Carter.
Now at this point, I've probably watched his LSB performance more times than I'd like to admit. But, in a recent interview with People, the Spider-Man: Homecoming star revealed something that made me want to go back and watch it again:
I said, ‘You want me to dance in the rain and do a front flip? I can’t do that in heels.' I wish I had now. That would have shut things down.
Now, me personally? I can barely walk in heels without wobbling and can't dance to save my life. But the mere fact that Tom was even considering dancing in the rain IN HEELS, proves to me, once and for all, that he is worthy of the Spidey suit.
Tom, I bow down.
