Tom Holland's new shaved appearance is polarizing for fans, but the actor said that he's a fan of the look.
"I really like it," the "Spider-Man: Far From Home" star said during a panel with costar Jake Gyllenhaal at ACE Comic Con in Rosemont, Illinois on Saturday. "I don't know about you, but I really, really like it. It's so much easier to manage. Quick towel dry and you're done. I have no mousse in here, nothing."
Holland cut off most of his hair for a role in an upcoming movie called "Cherry," which is directed by Joe Russo and Anthony Russo (known for their work on Marvel movies like "Avengers: Endgame") and scheduled for release in 2020. "Cherry" is based on a 2018 book of the same name written by Nico Walker and Holland will portray a drug addict. In addition to the new haircut, the 23-year-old actor also said that he went on a weight loss diet for a month.
