Tom Holland, known for his role in “Uncharted,” reunited with his onscreen mother Naomi Watts for lunch in the Hamptons on Monday. They were joined by her former partner Liev Schreiber, their two children, and his girlfriend Taylor Neisen.
The 26-year-old British actor made his big-screen debut at just 14 in “The Impossible,” playing Lucas Bennett, the 12-year-old son of Watts’ character, Maria Bennett, a doctor. The film, directed by J.A. Bayona and based on the true story of María Belón and her family during the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, grossed $198.1M worldwide.
Reflecting on Holland’s success, Watts commented in a February 23 interview with ComicBookMovie.com, “It’s so wonderful. I’m so happy for him. I always knew that Tom would go on and have a pretty outstanding career. I didn’t think of Spider-Man, that’s just not something that came to mind. But I knew that he had all of the goods.”
During their lunch outing, Holland sported a casual look with a purple backwards baseball cap, a ‘Paper Planes’ logo, a white T-shirt, grey jeans, and white sneakers. He also engaged in conversation with Schreiber, who recently received an Emmy Award nomination for best TV movie for his work on the Showtime spin-off of “Ray Donovan.”
Watts and Schreiber, who share custody of their two children Sasha, turning 15 soon, and Kai, 13, are known for their amicable co-parenting relationship. Both have moved on with new partners, Billy Crudup and Taylor Neisen, respectively.
Holland has been busy with his upcoming projects, including producing and starring in Akiva Goldsman’s 10-episode draмa “The Crowded Room,” where he plays ‘The Campus Rɑpist.’ The series, set in 1977 New York City and based on Daniel Keyes’ novel “The Minds of Billy Milligan,” also features Amanda Seyfried, Levon Roan Thurman-Hawke, Emmy Rossum, Christopher Abbott, Sasha Lane, and Jason Isaacs.
Meanwhile, Watts recently completed filming for her role as Maria Broaddus opposite Bobby Cannavale in Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan’s stalker horror мystery “The Watcher,” set to premiere on Netflix later this year.
