Tom Hollandand Benedict Cumberbatch are out promotingInfinity Wartogether and in a new interview they were asked some questions outside of the spoiler-types that they normally get. This new line of questioning had Holland mistakeRuPaul’s Drag Racefor a show about actual drag racing, which received a pretty good look from Cumberbatch. It’s definitely one of the best promotional appearances forInfinity Warthat has been released thus far.
In a new interview with Absolute Radio,Benedict Cumberbatchand Tom Holland were asked which member of theAvengers: Infinity Warcast would winRuPaul’s Drag Race. The interviewer gave the actors a choice between Robert Downey Jr., Tom Hiddleston, or Bradley Cooper. Without skipping a beat, Holland replies, “I think Downey would win at Drag Race because he has the fastest cars.” Cumberbatch gives a funny look to the camera before telling Holland whatRuPaul’s Drag Racereally is by saying, “Aaah… it’s not that kind of Drag Race. RuPaul, man.”
After a second, Tom Holland figures it out and exclaims, “Oh yes… I do know what that is!” The look on Benedict Cumberbatch’s face is really something that needs to be seen to be believed. After they get the whole “drag race” vs. drag race straightened out, Cumberbatch explains that he thinks thatInfinity Waractor Tom Hiddleston would probably winRuPaul’s Drag Racebecause the actor can reportedly, “dress up pretty mighty fine.” It makes sense that 21-year old Holland wouldn’t know aboutRuPaul’s Drag Race, even though it has been on for over ten years now. Plus, Holland is from the U.K. and is probably more used toTop Gearas opposed to RuPaul’s show.
At least Tom Holland isn’t out spoilingInfinity Warfor Marvel fans. The young actor has been known to accidentallylet some secrets out, which prompted the Russo Brothers to only handout little bits of the script at a time. Additionally, Holland has only seen the very first 30 minutes of the movie from recent special fan screenings, which is probably all for the best. In terms of seeing the whole script, the Russo Brothers recently revealed that they believe Benedict Cumberbatch is the only member of the cast that had access to the entire thing.
Infinity Waris now less than a week away and the hype is starting to drive a certain faction ofhardcore Marvel fansa little crazy, which is completely understandable since the Russo Brothers and Marvel have been leading a pretty tight-lipped ship. It’s still pretty amazing that there’s still mystery surroundingInfinity Warwith less than a week to go. That being said, fans may want to start to limit their social media use to keep from spoilers ruining their moviegoing experience. While we wait forInfinity War, you can watch Tom Holland mistakeRuPaul’s Drag Racefor a real drag race below, thanks to theAbsolute Radio Twitteraccount.
