Tom Holland Literally Throws Hands to Rescue Zendaya From Aggressive Paparazzi
Fans are amazed by the way Tom Holland "really bulldozed his way there to rescue" Zendaya after a new video clip surfaced showing the actor forcing his way into an unruly crowd to help his girlfriend.
The video was filmed by photographer Jackson Lee, who uploaded it to Instagram on the evening of Thursday, Oct. 24, before it was quickly reposted across TikTok and X by several update accounts as fans gushed over his "gentleman[ly]" actions.

In it, Zendaya stepped out of the back of a black SUV in a stunning red leather gown with black red-bottomed stilettos. She immediately turned around to wait for her beau to slip out of the car, too, but as he waved to the waiting crowd—seemingly made up of paparazzi and professional autograph resellers—while making his way down the sidewalk, Zendaya lingered to offer a few signatures.
The paparazzi quickly filled in the gap left for them to walk through, swarming behind the Disney alum and ignoring her staff's commands to move back as they recorded the actress.
Suddenly, the Spider-Man star appeared back in the frame, darting underneath arms before grabbing photographers by the shoulder and shoving them out of the way to get back to his partner. He grabbed Zendaya by the hand and led her to safety.
Other X users were impressed with the "way he rescued her so fast," noting, "my respect for him just went up," while some pointed out that he "went Spider-Man mode" to get to her in the middle of the "actually scary" situation.
Clearly, he's still giving Travis Kelce a run for his money.
