"Boys should have a nice car," Grace said.

There seemed to be something wrong with this sentence, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong for a while.He was very happy-boys really want to have a nice car.He only thinks about where to look at the car and how long it will take. He has seen several cars for a long time, and is eagerly waiting to go to the car dealership for a test drive.

Harrison is not in Los Angeles, but he has other friends, and several people went to the dealership to see the car, test drive it, take pictures, and post it on Instagram.Tom considered the appearance, engine, and acceleration, while Grace considered the safety factor, and finally picked a car that both of them were satisfied with.

The two picked up the car on the fourth Saturday in May. Tom showed off happily for a week, and then flew to Atlanta. Marvel and Sony called the six young actors who were shortlisted to the Atlanta location. "Captain America 5" is shooting exterior scenes here, and they want all the candidates to audition with the main actors.

On the last day of May, Sunday, the interview went on for a whole day.

Among the 6 candidates, only Tom and Asa are from the UK, and the other 4 actors are all Americans. Marvel is optimistic about the 16-year-old Charlie Plummer, but Sony is optimistic about the 19-year-old Tom Holland.There were rumors before that Asa Butterfield was jointly recognized by the two companies.

In order to get the role of Peter Parker, Tom made a lot of efforts, including studying Peter Parker's personality with the acting teacher, studying the strengths of other shortlisted actors, constantly shooting new audition tapes according to the requirements of the production company, and also Videos of practicing backflips and trampolines were sent to the casting director, and he also called Chris Hemsworth, who worked with the hammer in "The Depths of the Ocean", and asked him to help him speak well to the director and producer A few words.In short, he did everything he could think of.

Opportunities are always reserved for those who are always prepared, and they must also understand their opponents.Grace used Soda to analyze it for him. The other 5 people are not like him who learned dance since he was a child. His physical condition is much higher than that of other competitors. Somersaults are likely to be a big plus.

The auditions of the 6 people were interspersed, and each of them did not know the arrangements of the others.Tom auditioned first with Iron Man Robert Downey Jr. and then with Captain America Chris Evans.

Audition, that's all.Both the agent and the acting teacher said that it is good to perform as usual when going to the audition.They want a teenager, you are a teenager, you just have to show yourself.

Immediately after Tom's audition was over, he called Grace.

"Are they going to announce today?" she asked.

"Probably not. I heard it might be Asa."

"No one will know who it is until it's announced, don't worry. Tired?"

"It's okay, not tired."

"When are you coming back?"

"Plane tomorrow morning."

"Want to go out tonight?"

"uh-huh."

"Okay, it's fun."

He lowered his voice, "Here they ask a lot, and you can't say this or that. I'll tell you about today's affairs after I go back. Awesome! Amazing!"

She smiled, "Okay, when you come back, tell me everything."

oh boy!

Grace hung up the phone.

Tom couldn't hide his excitement at all in his voice. It sounded like everything was going well, and the next step was the uncontrollable decision of the production company. Soda has calculated the probability of Tom getting the role, and he has the highest probability among the 6 shortlisted actors, but it will not be 100% probability, and there are too many variables in it.

It was certainly a great celebration for him to get the role, but if he didn't get the role, she would have to think about how to comfort him now.

Juliet said that things always have to work hard in the direction of the good (what you want), and at the same time, you must be prepared for the worst. If you are fully prepared, but you don’t get the results you want, you may only Sigh, "time and destiny" is a tease of fate; "the right time, place and people" may not necessarily get you the results you want, human nature and people's hearts are unstable, there are many variables, things may not always be Can do what you want.

Tom didn't take many films after "Tsunami Miracle", mostly because Dominique strictly selected the scripts for him. The audition itself is a double-selection process. The role you want may not be suitable for others, and it is impossible to fail the audition. Avoid, as an actor, Tom should have been used to failure.

She suddenly remembered that although he would tell her almost everything, he would only complain about the failure of the audition after a long time at most. If he didn't tell her, she wouldn't know that he still cared a little about the failure.

——That’s right, who likes to fail?No one likes to fail.

He would have wanted to be Peter Parker, and if he didn't get it, he'd be depressed for a long time, and that wouldn't be good.She likes his smile, innocent and shy, this innocence is precious, she doesn't want him to turn into a crying little crying bag.

The next day, June 6, Tom's 1th birthday, he returned from Atlanta.

On the surface, business as usual.Grace is busy with her dissertation and is not in class, but has frequent trips to the library.They eat lunch at a restaurant near the school and go home for dinner.

Tom recently learned how to cook, bought a few oven cookbooks, and made some relatively simple food according to them, and he did a good job.Grace watched him for a few days, and felt that he seemed to be in a good mood, and he didn't seem to care much about the audition.

When he came back, he told her a whole lot about the audition in Atlanta. When he talked about how he met Robert Downey Jr., Mr. Downey was super kind; when he talked about how he met Chris Evans, Evan Mr. Si is also very gentle.The lady in the clothing department is super nice. They prepared 6 sets of Spider-Man suits, because the height of each selected actor is different. He wore the basic version of the Spider-Man suit, and was called "Baby Pajamas" by Mr. Downey .Downey and Evans are seniors and idols to him, and it is really exciting to think about working with them!

On his 19th birthday, Grace threw him a boisterous birthday party, invited some of his actor friends, sent him skydiving lessons, and made an appointment to go to the class after she finished defending her thesis.

June 6st is Monday. On this day, newspapers and entertainment news websites have preemptively reported Marvel’s Atlanta audition, claiming that this is the final audition. Just decide on the actor who plays Peter Parker, otherwise we won't be able to keep up with the schedule.The report also wrote the names of the 1 young actors who entered the final round of auditions, and friends congratulated him in advance.

Friends also said that Tom Holland's Caltech nerd girlfriend is actually real!It's really beautiful!He didn't know whether to be angry or happy.

Grace's dissertation defense proceeded very quickly, and the defense was completed in the second week of June and passed in one go.Grace suddenly decided to return to London in the two weeks before the graduation ceremony, so they skipped skydiving lessons and returned to England.

When I got back to London, I went back to each house to find my mother.

Juliet asked, "Why did you come back suddenly? My dad and I are going to Los Angeles at the end of the month to attend your graduation ceremony."

"Sony and Marvel have not announced their candidates for a long time. I am afraid that Tom will be sad if he doesn't get Peter Parker. I don't know how to comfort him."

"We don't know much about this kind of thing, but if an appointment is delayed, it may mean that several people with decision-making power cannot make a unified decision, so they need a little time to reach a consensus."

Makes sense. "So it's hard to say who's going to get the role right now."

"It's right for you to bring him back. You can't bear the bad news alone. He will be better with his parents."

"I still like him very much."

"If it's good news, it doesn't matter if he's in Pasadena or London. But between you... it's better not to have bad news in the middle."

"Well, that's what I thought too." No one thinks of bad news when they think of their lover, and that's a bummer.

David said: "Maybe one failure can make him mature quickly."

Juliet and Grace looked sideways.

"Dad! Why does he need some 'frustration education'? No one likes to fail."

David said with a deep face: "Frustration can make people mature quickly, and the same is true of falling in love."

Juliet looked sideways again.

"It's good that he is like this. It's me who is in love with him, not you. Don't keep saying strange things."

"Looks like I need to talk to him."

"What are you talking about? No."

"Oh, silly boy! It's a father's right."

The agent didn't have any conclusive news, and just told him to wait at ease. Marvel's time was very tight, and a candidate had to be decided before the end of this month, and they wouldn't wait too long.

A few days later, in the fourth week of June, on the morning of June 6, Marvel Studios announced on its official website that the new Spider-Man actor has been selected, and the British actor Tom Holland will play Peter Parker.The official website of Sony Pictures also announced the director of the restarted version of "Spider-Man". The new spider-man independent film will be released in July 6.

There is an 8-hour time difference between Los Angeles and London. It was after 4 pm in London. Tom and his father Dominic were playing golf. Suddenly, the mobile phone kept ringing, and a lot of calls came in.

The boy's voice sounded hurriedly and excitedly on the radio, "Grace! Grace! Super good news! Isme! I'm Peter Parker!"

"Great! Congratulations."

He started rambling super fast, "It's been so long! It's been almost a month! I thought it couldn't be me. I mean, if it wasn't me, I can't believe there is someone else I'm more suitable!"

"I knew it would be you, I always believed you were the best."

Tom was happy. "Thank you. I want to see you now. Are you free? Where are you?"

"Come here, David and Juliet and I are eating out, and we will go home after dinner. Or—have you eaten yet? Otherwise, come and eat together."

"My dad and I are playing golf."

"Dominic, come along, and I'll tell dad about it."

Tom asked his father, and after a few seconds he replied, "Okay, Dad said we should eat together."

Dominic Holland was also overjoyed.He has the art of speaking, and humbly expressed to the Elliott couple that this is nothing, but he couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, and his heart was full of pride, the pride of being the eldest son.

Tom sat with Grace, head to head, talking in a low voice.He couldn't wait to express his joy to his girlfriend, and couldn't wait to share his joy with her.

Grace rubbed his curly hair with a smile, "I said it would be you. They will definitely choose the most suitable candidate, and no one is more suitable than you."

He can finally be proud now, "I also think it must be me. The agent said he is already looking at my contract."

"I haven't seen the performance contract yet, can I take a look after you sign it?"

The author has something to say: *Today, I searched for news about the audition. It is confirmed that on May 5, all 31 actors were called to Atlanta to audition. After that, it seems that Tom and another American actor were called to talk to the actors again Facing the audition mirror, so in Spider-Man's audition highlights, he had different hairstyles in the two auditions.But still a little bit.
