Meet the Star-Studded Cast of Tom Holland’s New Show, “The Crowded Room”

In the series, Holland plays Danny Sullivan, a complicated man dealing with severe mental illness. Holland is known for several roles, most recently Nate Drake in “Uncharted” and, most notably, Peter Parker in the Spider-Man film series.

Holland has been vocal about how mentally taxing portraying the role had been. He revealed in May that digging into mental health on the series led him to get sober. And on June 7, Holland announced that he’s taking a year off from acting.

“I’ve always sort of lived by this idea that hard work is good work,” he told Extra on June 6. “But then again, the show did break me. There did come a time where I was sort of like, ‘I need to have a break.’ I disappeared. I went to Mexico for a week and had some time on a beach. And I’m now taking a year off, and that is a result of how difficult this show was.”
