During a promotional interview, Hathaway spoke about her experience working with Holland and didn’t hold back her admiration.
“Well, first of all, I have to say as a mom in real life, I very much hope all of my children grow up to be as wonderful as my onscreen child,” Hathaway said, prompting Holland to laugh.
She added, “Tom is like a dream son. And that, honestly, is kind of like the key to it. We have this amazing script, brilliant actors.” Hathaway also credited the cast for making the production special, saying she genuinely enjoys working alongside Holland and Damon.
Holland later responded to Hathaway’s comments with appreciation. “That’s very sweet,” he said.
The actor then reflected on the advice that has guided him throughout his career, sharing that his parents taught him never to take his success for granted.
“I’m so lucky to do what I do and to do it with the people that I get to do it with. And the moment that you start taking those things for granted is the moment you’ll get lost,” Holland said.
He added that staying true to himself has become even more important as his profile has grown.
