Holland, who will star in the wall-crawler's first standalone film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), "Spider-Man," hitting the big screen in July, gushed about being part of the film.
"I remember actually going to see the first 'Avengers' with one of my best mates from home and I would never have dreamed to be in one of these movies, let alone playing Spider-Man," the actor said.
"I feel like I'm on top of the world because this is just mind-blowing," Holland went on to say about his "Avengers 3: Infinity War," which appears to be Spider-Man's third MCU outing.
Marvel head Kevin Feige also had a lot to say about the movie. He described "Avengers 3: Infinity War" as "the culmination of the Marvel Cinematic Universe" since the first "Iron Man" film from May 2008.
He said that while the movies have been building to the superheroes ultimately battling Thanos (Josh Brolin) in the film, "Avengers 3: Infinity War" will still feature surprises for fans.
Feige noted that in "Avengers 3: Infinity War," the Avengers will officially meet the Guardians of the Galaxy. This is no surprise as Pratt was with Holland and Downey in Pinewoods.
Furthermore, a concept art shows Rocket Raccoon (Bradley Cooper) working side by side with Thor (Chris Hemsworth). This goes to show that "Avengers 3: Infinity War" is about to make the world much bigger and the dynamics between the characters more expansive.
"Avengers 3: Infinity War" will continue to see the Avengers divided from the fallout in "Captain America: Civil War." This makes the world vulnerable although Tony Stark is preparing for the new threat.
Joe Russo, the director of the film together with his brother Anthony Russo, described "Avengers 3: Infinity War" as a "combustible, exciting, massive scale adventure."
"Avengers 3: Infinity War" will hit the cinemas May 4, 2018.
