Avengers star Tom Holland is hosting a quiz themed around the Marvel Cinematic Universe to raise money for charity.
The quiz will take place at 8pm GMT on Wednesday 29 April 2020, and will raise money for his family’s organisation The Brothers Trust.
Talking to Jimmy Kimmel via video link, the Spider-man: Homecoming star explained: “The Brothers Trust is a fundraising vehicle that we use to raise money from the general public, that we feed towards charities that we feel need the light and the support.
“But we felt a little bit uncomfortable asking people for money at this difficult time so we as a collective have been doing the donations.”
He continued: “The reason why we’re doing the pub quiz is just to galvanise people and to give people a sense of community and to kind of bring people together and just have a laugh and have a good time. That’s essentially what we’re trying to do.”
Holland is hosting the quiz on his Instagram page, which can be found here.
The British actor is set to reprise the role of Peter Parker in the final film in the Homecoming trilogy, which has recently been pushed back from 16 July to 5 November 2021.
