Tom Holland says he's 'proud' of 'The Crowded Room' amid its 'horrible' reviews

Tom Holland is hopeful his TV miniseries "The Crowded Room" will touch fans despite negative reviews.

The 27-year-old actor appeared on Unilad's "Get a Job" series Friday where he addressed the Apple TV+ psychological thriller, which he starred in and executive produced.

"It's no secret that my show has been so horribly reviewed," he said.

Holland’s character Danny Sullivan in the series, based on the 1981 novel “The Minds of Billy Milligan,” is arrested after a shooting at Rockefeller Center in 1979.

Indie Wire graded the show a C-, Variety called it "empty" and CNN said the series yielded "pretty mediocre-to-bad results." The Rotten Tomatoes score at publish is 31%.

Holland said on Unilad that he learned how to be "very resilient" as a result of being a Tottenham Hotspur fan. The soccer team has never won the Premiere League.

The actor explained that because he learned resilience, he's far more concerned with what viewers learn from watching "The Crowded Room" over how it stacks up in reviews.

"I think that the message of the show, which can speak to so many different issues is that asking for help should be something that we as a society celebrate. It's an act of bravery," he said.

"Standing up and asking for help is not something you should be ashamed of, and I hope that this show can represent that in a truthful and authentic, and most importantly, sensitive way," Holland said. "If we can somehow make people feel empowered by saying, 'I'm not feeling good, I really need some help,' then we've done what we set out to do."

The actor concluded that he's "incredibly proud" of "The Crowded Room." "I think it carries a really important message and I think ultimately it's going to be educational and entertaining."

Holland previously said the role took a psychological strain on him, which is why he's decided to take a year off of acting.

He told Extra in an interview earlier this month that the role was a "tough time," and the show had him exploring some emotions he had never experienced before.

"The show did break me," he said in the interview. "There did come a time where I was like 'I need to have a break,' and I disappeared, I went to Mexico for a week, had some time on a beach and lay low. I'm now taking a year off, and that is the result of how difficult this show was."
