Spider-Man: Homecoming is scheduled for a July 9 release.

The 21-year-old star, who plays Peter Parker/Spiderman in Marvel’s upcoming Spider-Man: Homecoming, says he fears the arachnid species as he finds them “sneaky”, reported FemaleFirst.

“I don’t like spiders, man, just because they are sneaky - they just really scare me. They are hairy - ugh.

“The more I get asked this question, the more scared I get of spiders so I think I am going to try to convince myself that I am not afraid of spiders,” Holland says.
