Actor and “Spider-Man” star Tom Holland has frequently been blamed for sharing spoilers about upcoming films in the past. Apparently, it happened so often that his co-star Benedict Cumberbatch, who plays “Doctor Strange,” was tasked with helping Holland keep his mouth shut about “Avengers: Infinity War.”

A video was even created and posted on social media, with “a thrilling saga” of moments where Cumberbatch blocked Holland from saying something he shouldn’t.

The saga includes four interview segments with both Cumberbatch and Holland on scene. At each key moment, Cumberbatch always knew how to shut Holland down and prevent him from leaking classified details about the film. Cumberbatch used various methods, such as making funny sounds, interrupting the conversation, or simply singing songs.

Recently, the directors of “Avengers: Infinity War,” Anthony and Joe Russo were asked about Tom Holland in an interview with Entertainment Tonight to promote the movie’s digital release.

“What are you gonna do? You know. He’s the nicest guy in the world. So you can never be punitive towards Tom Holland,” said Joe Russo.

Anthony Russo was smiling and laughing throughout the question, but only came up with one sentence.

“That’s hard work,” he said about Cumberbatch’s great job of monitoring Holland.
