Marvel Studios have been incredibly far ahead in gathering some of the most hilarious actors and putting them together. It has been their main ingredient to make films that appeal to a wider range of audiences.
While we can all agree that Marvel spent handsomely to furnish the Iron Man suit and the visuals back in 2008, Robert Downey Jr. had a huge role in making the viewers laugh with Tony Stark’s playboy humor.
The Avengers in 2012 did the magic by exploring humor with multiple actors and during the most intense fight sequences. The film grossed $1.5B globally and Marvel’s faith in their formula solidified. But they didn’t limit that just to films.
Marvel Actors Get Crafty During Press Junkets And Talk Shows
We’re now in phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and what we’ve loved watching on the screen, the actors have done a phenomenal job at bringing it out of the screen.
The youngest web-slinging kid on the block, Tom Holland has amped up the whole humor game and he had Chris Hemsworth on his radar.
In an Unsuited talk show on Youtube, both actors pulled each other verbally in the most not-so-subtle way.
Chris Hemsworth was curious to know who was Holland’s favorite actor in the whole world, and he didn’t expect what the latter had to say.
“Liam Hemsworth is up there man, he’s great,” said Holland. “Yeah, he’s great. Any other Hemsworth?” – asked Hemsworth. “Luke Hemsworth is also super talented,” replied Holland.
While we could see the humorous tension between the two, Tom Holland smashed it away calling his daughter India Hemsworth more talented than her father.
Chris Pratt Had to Avenge His Guardians of the Galaxy Mate
Tom Holland has been Marvel Studios’ favorite actor who can sneak up on co-stars and test their capacity for subtle insults. But he didn’t expect the tables would turn on him.
Guardians of the Galaxy star Chris Pratt showed Holland that he has a lot of work to do before he could match up to his spontaneous humor.
Making a surprise appearance on Jimmy Kimmel’s talk show, Tom Holland asked Avengers: Infinity War co-star Chris Pratt who his favorite actor was.
“All the actors in the world? Denzel,” said Pratt. “Don’t applaud,” Holland requested the audience. “How about, an actor whose name begins with Tom? How about that?” – asked Holland. “Oh, Tom Cruise. He’s great,” joked Pratt.
Tom Holland continued –
“Alright, I could simplify it for you again. What if his second name starts with H, like Tom H?” “Oh, Hanks. Beautiful day in the neighborhood,” replied Pratt and smashes Holland’s smile off his face.
Tom Holland getting the taste of his own medicine was definitely a view and Marvel has been consistent with pitting actors against their co-stars as a form of publicity gimmick for their films, and it works!
Secret Invasion has recently wrapped up with the last episode and the story continues with The Marvels coming November 10, this year.
