Proving that Spiderman does, in fact, have a dad, Hollywood A-lister Tom Holland and his father, comedian and broadcaster Dominic Holland, visited Oxford to finish recording his contribution to his father's audio book.

Tom played Peter Parker/Spider-Man in the Sony and Marvel blockbusters.

He was also a child star making his West End debut in Billy Elliot the Musical as Michael, Billy's best friend, in 2008 and later playing the title role for five years.

The Hollands were finishing recording Dominic's forthcoming audiobook Eclipsed at Electric Breeze Audio Productions near Cowley Road last summer and Tom was happy to meet some of the younger members of the studio owner's family.

 

Oxford Mail:

 

The audiobook, which is about the Holland family and Tom and his father's rival careers, was appropriately published on Father's Day on June 19 and is already drawing great reviews. 

And Dominic Holland has chosen to sell it online through a new online bookshop set up by Electric Breeze Audio Productions, rather than through a large publisher.

Deborah Woodhouse, director of Electric Breeze, said: "This is an exciting project for us, and we really enjoyed working with Tom and Dom, to produce an audiobook that is a mixture of both a true story, and father and son in conversation about their family, and respective careers.

"We are so pleased to be selling the audiobook on Dominic's behalf, and listeners will move from laughter to cringing, to wonder, at what unfolds in this true story.

"Tom has read the preface, and there is plenty of material in there that people who read the first version of 'Eclipsed' won't have heard before."
