Episode Jacob Batalon Talks Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Zendaya & Tom Holland, Pokémon and Becoming Ned Leeds
Jacob Batalon joins us to discuss reprising his role as Ned Leeds for a fourth time in 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day.' The Hawaii-born Filipino actor reflects on nearly a decade growing up alongside Tom Holland and Zendaya, the chemistry audition that changed his life, and why he wasn't even sure there would be a fourth Spider-Man film. It's hard to believe that landing one of the biggest franchises in cinema began with his very first proper audition. He also shares what he learned from Robert Downey Jr., Jon Favreau and Zendaya while growing up in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Plus, Jacob opens up about starring in and executive producing 'Reginald the Vampire', being raised by immigrant parents, overcoming childhood bullying, the grounding influence of his fiancée Veronica, his obsession with Pokémon, and the story behind becoming the internet's "CEO of Sex." Along the way, we discuss breaking male friendship stereotypes, his love of manga, finding creative fulfillment, and why he's always trying to keep the bigger picture in mind.
