Tom Holland’s ‘Rizz’ Interview About Zendaya Somehow Managed To Warm My Cold Dead Heart
I’m not gonna lie, I squealed when Spider-Man’s Tom Holland and Zendaya finally got together in 2021. The pair are just too damn adorable in interviews, and their wholesome love story is basically a rom-com.
Look, I’m a sucker for a friends-to-lovers story, and a new 23-second clip of Tom has just warmed my cold, jaded heart.
In an interview with Buzzfeed, Tom talked about his limited rizz (charisma, for all those non-Gen-Z peeps), and credited the Spider-Man films for helping kickstart his relationship.
How to develop “rizz” according to Tom Holland:
1. make a movie with them
2. be their love interest
3. play the long gameCatch Tom answering 30 questions on buzzfeed celeb! Video out tomorrow. pic.twitter.com/b2colDfafA

“I have no rizz whatsoever, I have limited rizz,” he said. “I need you to fall in love with me really for it to work. So long game, probably making a movie with each other, it definitely helps when the characters are falling in love with one another. You can sort of blur the lines a little bit, that’s kind of where my rizz is at.”
I’m pretty sure Tom has quite a bit of rizz, considering the short king has been dating Zendaya for a while now, but his next two sentences sent Twitter into a frenzy.
“I’m locked up so I’m happy in love. So I’ve got no need for rizz,” he declared.
