Actor Tom Holland revealed he couldn’t cry on set and hence took some help from the English actor Benedict Cumberbatch.
The 27-year-🦹old actor found himself filled with "worry" whenever he had to show emotion on screen because he found it so d🍌ifficult.
Speaking at a recent SAG-AFTRA Foundation event to promote his latest series ‘The Crowded Room’, Tom said: “Benedict Cumberbatch is someone that I asked for advice a lot about acting. I went through a phase w⭕here I was really really struggling to cry, in my personal life also."
“It was really affecting me on set because I would really just w꧃orry about crying scenes and worry and worry and worry and I would worry so much that I would 🦄almost like worry myself out of tears,” he said.
Holland shared how Cumberbatch had taught him to overcome his fear of crying whilst they worked on 2017 thriller ‘✅The Current War’ - and now he loves such scenes, reports♐ femalefirst.co.uk.
He said: “Th💞e technique that he told me was this kind of thing that he's able to do with his diap🏅hragm which is almost like laughing. I'm probably giving away his secrets here.
“He would do thᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚis thing where he would kind of simulate laughing and he would breathe really really quickly and that would sort of, I guess bring the emotion to the surface and then he cou𒊎ld just take it and ride the wave from there."
He later loved crying scenes, said the actor.
"I'd started doing that and I love crying scenes now. I love it, I feel really confident. It's something I really feel likeꦕ I have in my wheelhouse. I don't have to draw on past experien♛ces or personal matters anymore, which is really important, especially for a show like this," he said.
