The 21-year-old star debuted as Spider-Man in last year’s Captain America: Civil War and now he’s about to lead his very own solo movie as the Web Slinger.

Holland will co-star with Downey Jr, in what will be the Iron Man actor’s seventh film in Marvel franchise.

Appearing on this week’s The Graham Norton Show, the young British star revealed his first extremely awkward first meeting with the A-lister.

He said: “I got very nervous about meeting Robert Downey Jr as I have been a fan of his my entire life."
