Holland is currently focused on his latest appearance as Peter Parker in “Spiderman: No Way Home,” which hits theaters on Dec. Jamie Bell, who played Billy Elliot in the 2000 film, will star as the legendary entertainer opposite Margaret Qualley’s Ginger Rogers in a new movie for Amazon Studios. Holland’s forthcoming project isn’t the only Fred Astaire flick coming down the pipeline. Fred Astaire is considered the greatest dancer in film history. The actor also memorably appeared on “Lip Sync Battle” in 2017, in which a fishnet-wearing Holland danced and sang to a mashup of “Singin’ in the Rain” - from the 1962 Gene Kelly musical - and “Umbrella” by Rihanna. However, Holland is no slouch himself: He cut his teeth as a stage performer at London’s West End theater, playing the titular role in “Billy Elliot the Musical” between 20.
Widely regarded as the greatest dancer in film history, the Omaha-born choreographer appeared in more than 30 movie musicals and formed one of Hollywood’s most iconic on-screen partnerships with Ginger Rogers.

The role was first hinted at in a GQ profile on the 25-year-old actor last month, in which producer Amy Pascal said that she wanted Holland to play the late Hollywood icon in the yet-to-be-titled flick. “I haven’t read it yet they haven’t given it to me.” The script came in a week ago,” Holland told reporters of the project, which is still in its early stages. “Spider-Man” star Tom Holland confirmed Sunday that he’ll be portraying iconic dancer, actor and singer Fred Astaire in an upcoming Sony biopic.
