Everything is going to challenge you. He’s going to make big choices.” “Acting is listening, you have to be able to react to him,” he continued. “I do remember in that scene when he’s talking to me, having this feeling inside of like, ‘I want to hit him so fucking bad’. But he’s great and I love him, he’s excellent in this film.” @digitalspyuk Robert Pattinson might have been too committed to the "daddy" scene with Tom Holland 😂 The Odyssey is released in cinemas on 17 July 🎥 #TheOdyssey#TomHolland#RobertPattinson ♬ original sound - Digital Spy Tom added: “I feel like he’s probably the only person that could have found that version of Antinous.
