Tom Holland and Zendaya’s love story might just be the most heartwarming subplot of the Spider-Man saga. This dynamic duo has captured the public’s attention both on and off-screen, prompting everyone to root for them. Who would’ve thought that their chemistry wasn’t just movie magic—it was the real deal? Well, one of their co-stars has something to say about it!
Marisa Tomei, who played the iconic Auntie May, recently spilled some tea at Fan Expo 2024. The actor revealed some juicy details about watching Tom Holland and Zendaya growing as actors and as a couple. She gushed about how witnessing their love story unfold was a highlight of her time on the Spider-Man set.

“I think some of the favorite things were really just watching Tom and Zendaya grow up and watching them fall in love… and seeing their phenomenal talent.”
Tom and Zendaya, who first sparked dating rumors in 2021, have since then given the most sweet #CoupleGoals of the MCU. And guess what? Marisa was fangirling over their many talents—acting, dancing, fashion— but her admiration was mostly centered on the bond her fellow actors built.
“They carry enormous, enormous star power, enormous power and they manage to be real people at the same time and and just, they’re multitalented.”
The actors starred in three Spider-Man films: 2017’s “Spider-Man: Homecoming,” 2019’s “Spider-Man: Far From Home,” and 2021’s “Spider-Man: No Way Home.” And then, history was made with Marisa Tomei being proud to witness the creation of a great movie and a love story being born.
