Tom Holland‘s acting trajectory over the years has fans comparing the star to the late Anton Yelchin, who died in a tragic accident in 2016.
Holland, who has been a part of the entertainment industry for over a decade, has starred in various hit films, including The Impossible, the Spiderman franchise, Uncharted, Chaos Walking, Cherry, and many more. The 26-year-old’s past roles recently became a topic of conversation when a Reddit user brought up the similarity in Holland’s and Yelchin’s career choices.Â
In the post, the social media user explained that Holland and Yelchin are both stars of massive franchises, but would often choose smaller, yet well-received projects. Prior to Yelchin’s untimely passing in 2016, when the actor’s vehicle rolled backward on his driveway and pinned him, his most prominent roles included the Star Trek Smurfs franchise, Alpha Dog, and Green Room.

At the same time, another individual recalled one of Yelchin’s past roles as Charley Brewster in 2011’s Fright Night.
A third social media user explained that throughout Yelchin’s career he had “made some interesting role choices.”
