The 20-year-old actor explains that he was initially keen to do the stunt himself, saying, “I was like, ‘Let me to it. Let me do it.’ When I saw [the stunt double] do it and get dunked in the lake, I [was] so happy I let him do that one because that was the scariest thing I’ve ever seen. Can you imagine? Flying under a helicopter and being dunked in a lake. I don’t get paid enough for that shit. Sorry! Again. Again. I can’t help it. I’m sorry.”
Elsewhere in the Q&A, the Spider-Man actor reveals how he had a difficult time initially believing he had actually been chosen for the role, thinking he might be the victim of a prank in the wake of the Sony Pictures hack. He also discloses how he told an old friend that after being cast as Spider-Man he felt certain his alter ego could beat Batman in a fight.
