Tom Holland will finally be able to wear his dancing shoes! For his next, the Spider-Man British star will be leading the biopic of legendary actor, dancer and singer Fred Astaire for Sony. To be backed by Academy Award-nominated producer Amy Pascal, the film is still in 'its early stages,' said the young star, adding that he has not read the script yet.
Importance Why does this story matter?
Astaire is considered one of the greatest dancers and is widely recognized for his moves and ability to innovate. In addition to his Broadway outings and West End musicals, the Omaha, Nebraska-native had created more than 30 musical films. And Holland's lip sync battle performance of Rihanna 's Umbrella is still talked about, so we know this decision taken by Pascal and Sony have value.
