All MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) fans are reeling from what happened in Avengers: Endgame. However, just like the superheroes are moving on, so will we, thanks to Spider-Man: Far From Home. We will look into how Peter Parker is coping with the after-effects of Avengers: Endgame. This time, Jake Gyllenhaal enters the MCU as Quentin Beck, aka Mysterio. In an EXCLUSIVE interview with Pinkvilla, Tom had revealed that Mysterio becomes Spider-Man's best friend. Similarly, Tom and Jake struck a good friendship offscreen, which is evident during the promotional tour.

However, Tom was in for a ride when Jake asked him if he wanted to work out together, while in China. While talking to Stephen Colbert on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Holland revealed that he did not want to the gym with Gyllenhaal but because he is competitive, he could not say no. But, then there's the added factor that Jake is ripped, as Tom would say it. "We're doing ab exercises, leg exercises, and then he turns to me and he goes, 'Tom, do you wanna hop on the treadmill and warm up?' I'm like, 'Warm up? I'm roasting mate! I'm finished!'" Holland exclaimed.

Watch Tom's interview with Stephen below:


While on the treadmill, Jake suggested that they up the incline and given Tom's competitive avatar, he kept agreeing even though he was internally wishing for it to get over. 

Hilarious, indeed!
