In an interview to Channel News Asia, Holland enthused about why he enjoys making hospital visits as Spider-Man:

“It’s just one of those things that it’s no skin off my back, you know — it’s an afternoon of your time, and it really does cheer up these kids “If I can bring happiness to people all around the world, then I will try my best to do so. And I think one of the most important places to do that is in a children’s hospital, especially being Spider-Man.”
