'Spider-Man' actor Jacob Batalon is feeling 𝓿𝓮𝓻𝔂 𝓯𝓪𝓷𝓬𝔂⁠ after getting engaged to Veronica Leahov. 🥰💍⁠ ⁠ The 'Novocaine' star talks to ET about what it's like to be someone's fiancé. 💞
Peterman 😂 Jacob Batalon has been playing Ned Leeds since Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017, and a behind the scenes clip of him breaking character mid-scene with a panicked “am I fired?!” is making rounds online as a reminder of why this cast is genuinely one of the most likable in the MCU. Batalon reportedly landed the role of Ned as his first major acting job, straight out of the New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts, and auditioned directly opposite Tom Holland. The two became real life best friends almost immediately, with Batalon eventually moving into Holland’s home during production. It shows on screen, and apparently off it too.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ #bloopers #spiderman #movies #film

Tom Holland, Zendaya, and Jacob Batalon became one of the most recognizable friend groups in modern superhero movies through the Spider Man films. Tom plays Peter Parker, Zendaya portrays MJ, and Jacob plays Ned, Peter’s loyal best friend. While filming, the three developed a real friendship that fans often notice during interviews and behind the scenes moments. Their chemistry helped make Peter, MJ, and Ned feel like a genuine group of friends on screen.
This clip comes from promotion and behind-the-scenes discussion of Avengers: Endgame (2019), directed by Anthony Russo and Joe Russo and produced by Marvel Studios. The actors visible in this moment include Tom Holland (Peter Parker / Spider-Man), Zendaya (MJ), Jacob Batalon (Ned Leeds), and other cast members sitting during a press interview panel. In the clip, Tom Holland explains that while filming the emotional final sequence of the movie—Tony Stark’s funeral—he wasn’t told exactly what the scene represented because the directors wanted to prevent spoilers, which famously happens often with Holland since he has a reputation for accidentally revealing Marvel secrets. During filming he believed it was simply a normal scene and didn’t realize he was part of the emotional farewell to Iron Man, which makes the story funny and memorable for fans. American audiences love this moment because Holland’s innocent reaction and genuine emotion highlight how secretive Marvel productions are and how the Russo brothers carefully controlled information on set to protect the plot. Behind the scenes, the funeral scene was filmed with extreme secrecy at a closed set with many actors kept unaware of the full context until later, which helped preserve the emotional authenticity of performances. The clip is from an interview filmed in a studio setting using multi-camera coverage with close-ups on Holland as he tells the story, capturing his expressions while the rest of the cast reacts, and the lighting is typical soft studio lighting used for press junkets; the moment went viral among Marvel fans because it perfectly reflects Holland’s reputation as the MCU’s most lovable “spoiler-prone” actor and gives fans a rare look at how tightly guarded the production of Endgame was.
🎬 “Spider-man : Brand new day” Picking up directly after No Way Home, Peter Parker is living a lonely life in New York. The world has forgotten he is Peter, and he is struggling with the grief of losing Aunt May while watching MJ (Zendaya) and Ned (Jacob Batalon) start their lives at MIT without him. The film is being described as a “rebirth.” The trailer features a much more somber, grounded aesthetic than the previous trilogy, focusing on Peter’s internal struggle as he begins to lose his “Peter Parker” identity and fully immerse himself in being Spider-Man—leading to hints of a feral, spider-like metamorphosis. . . . #tomholland2013 #zendaya #trendingnow #spidermanbrandnewday #lovers

Released in 2019, Spider-Man: Far From Home follows Peter Parker’s high school life after Avengers: Endgame, blending superhero action with friendships, school trips, and awkward teen moments. The main student group includes Peter Parker, MJ, Ned Leeds, Betty Brant, and Flash Thompson, played by Tom Holland, Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Angourie Rice, and Tony Revolori. The school photo joke works because yearbooks are a real tradition where most students go for standard portraits, while some opt for more dramatic or personalized shots. That contrast reflects the film’s tone, mixing everyday teenage life with humor alongside big, high-stakes action.
