Actor Tom Holland says he damages his Spiderman costume a lot as he has to perform various stunts on the shoot.

The lead star of the highly-anticipated "Spider-Man: Homecoming", said he has atleast 20 pair of the Spidey costume, reported Aceshowbiz.

"I break them quite a lot because I have to do a lot of stunts and flips and stuff, so they rip. So, I think, we have 20 suits, I think, that we alternate. This is, actually, what we would call a beauty suit, which means it's 'picture ready.' And then we have a stunt suit, which isn't as nice as this one," Holland said.
 

The 20-year-old British actor said playing the titular superhero was always his dream.

"Spider-Man has always been a huge part of my life. I loved the movies, I loved the comics, and I always just wanted to be Spider-Man. I could never have imagined that this would become a reality, and then to be here today and meet all you guys is such a privilege."

"Spider-Man: Homecoming" is directed by Jon Watts from a script penned by John Francis Daley and Jonathan M. Goldstein.

The movie is scheduled to hit US theaters on July 7, 2017.
