Tom Holland has just broken our hearts in a very small way by announcing he is taking a break from social media, and while we have always enjoyed his presence in our newsfeed a social media hiatus is always good for the soul.
Taking to Instagram, Spider-Man has revealed that his Instagram shut down is because he’s set to film a new movie with Marvel producers Joe and Anthony Russo, that isn’t Peter Parker or Avengers related.
To soften the blow, Tom posted a cute picture of him and his doggo along with the caption: “My Pooch and Me. Off now to go begin my latest venture with the @therussobrothers ✌🏼”

“I’m going to be taking a short break from instagram,” Tom continue.
“So see you all in the not so distant future ❤️”
HUGE news.
Just a little FYI for those who don’t know, the Russo brothers are the dream team behind Avengers: Endgame, but rest assured this latest project called Cherry has nothing to do with the Marvel universe.
Cherry is based on the semi-autobiographical 2018 book, which follows an Army medic returning to his home in Ohio with undiagnosed PTSD from the war in Iraq. He later descends into addiction and robs banks.
So not a light and fluffy action flick, then.
Chatting on the panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Joe Russo gave us juicy details about Cherry: “It’s a story about drug addiction and the opioid crisis. It’s touched us both, it’s a deeply personal movie for us.
“The gent who wrote the book went through the same growth arc in the same part of the city we grew up in — but different experiences.”
Anthony Russo then confessed that the film may not be suitable for all Marvel fans: “It doesn’t have the surface-level entertainment as Marvel films, but these are stories that need to be told, and Joe and I are in that position to get these stories made.”
