Talking about the film, he then said, “Listen, I'm not in the film. I love Spider-Man, I always have, I was so happy to have played the part. I'm so excited to see what they do with the third one. Just like you are, to be honest. That's not the diplomatic answer; I really, really mean it."

Adding, he expressed his excitement for the third film and said that he has been desperately waiting for the film. “I love Tom Holland, I love [director] Jon Watts, I love [producers] Amy Pascal and Kevin Feige, and what they've done with those movies and that character. It's an important character to me. So I'm just really excited to see what happens in the third one, as you guys are,” he concluded on the show.
