Tom Holland of Spider-Man said he has succeeded in staying sober for almost four years.
In an interview with the U.S. magazine Esquire, Tom Holland revealed his current sobriety and said, "I feel like I've gained a new identity."
In this interview, Tom Holland said, "I've been sober for about three and a half years now. I feel really good. I feel like I've gained a new identity," expressing his feelings about succeeding in sobriety. Tom Holland previously spoke about difficulties from alcohol addiction and even founded a nonalcoholic beverage company.
He said about this, "It's going really well. I'm growing every day, and I'm coming up with new ideas and innovative products. I'm developing interesting new products to release this winter and next summer. It's truly a process of constant change and growth," he explained.
Tom Holland also said about choosing sobriety, "I was able to sleep better and handle problems better. Whatever happened on set, things that would have triggered me before I could now accept calmly. Mentally I became much clearer, I became healthier, and my body became healthier."
Earlier, Tom Holland appeared on a podcast in 2023 and confessed, "I used to drink a lot. I could always handle large amounts of alcohol. What I could do was drink all the alcohol. I drank a lot for a year, but I decided to stop starting last January." He said he had depended on alcohol during the COVID-19 pandemic.
He recalled, "I was worried I had an alcohol addiction problem. But getting out of alcohol addiction was really hard," and "After I quit drinking my mind cleared and I felt better. My body became healthier. I thought, 'Why was I a slave to alcohol? Why was I obsessed with drinking?'"
Tom Holland has also received much support from many fans in Korea for Marvel's Spider-Man and Avengers series, and he is dating co-star Zendaya Coleman. He is filming the fourth series, Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
