American Accents, 'Spider-Man' in the Deep South, and British Politeness on Set

Tom mentions that doing American accents paradoxically feels more freeing — the separation from himself as a British person helps him inhabit a character. But his dialect coach's single most frequent note was the strangest possible one: stop saying 'Spider-Man' in a Deep South accent. [1] — Tom Holland "'Spider-Man' hardest word in American accent: Tom Holland's hardest word in an American accent is ironically 'Spider-Man' — he kept sliding…" 1:03:44 The word that should be most natural to him kept coming out wrong. Amy counters with her own war story: playing government employee Leslie Knope required constant use of the word 'government,' which a Boston-inflected American brain mangles by dropping the R. Tom also observes that American characters, especially New Yorkers, don't add 'please' to food orders — a specifically British habit that his dialect coach had to coach out of him. The pair agree Australians do American accents best, Brits worst, and that British accents are hard partly because there are so many of them.
