Tom said: ‘I’ve been playing Spider-Man for a decade now. So I was probably 19, Civil War is either coming out or has come out.

‘So I knew I was Spider-Man, my family knew I was Spider-Man, but nobody else knew I was Spider-Man.

‘So we have kids coming to the door and trick or treating, really exciting. The parents are stood at the driveway making sure the kids are safe and everything.

‘And we’re waiting for a kid to show up as Spider-Man. Eventually someone does and my Dad calls me down.

‘And I think where I went wrong with this seven-year-old was that I was way more excited than he was.

‘So he’s there in this little Spider-Man suit with this bucket and I was like “omg hey Spider-Man how’s is going?”.

‘And he was like ”woah woah”. To which I then said, “let’s get a picture”. And then the parents took a big step forward.

‘And I had to be like “no no I am the real Spider-Man”. To which the parents then had to drag their kid away from my house.’

Confirming the fourth installment, he said: ‘It’s happening. Next summer we start shooting. Everything is good to go, we’re nearly there. Super exciting. I can’t wait.’

The new reveal comes as Tom revealed Robert Downey Junior saved his career after his part in Avengers was cut out.

Speaking on the Rich Roll podcast on Tuesday, he said: ‘When I did my [screen test], it was eight pages of dialogue. It was a long scene. It went great. I was told by my agent to learn the lines exactly.

‘When I got to set after I got the gig, my scene had been cut down significantly from what I did in the audition.

‘It was now maybe two pages, but Downey piped up, “Where did all of the kid’s lines go?”. Downey was the one who told them to use it.’

Tom also revealed that he ‘polished off the mini bar’ the night before his first screen test with Downey and ‘Marvel found out about that.’

The actor has since given up alcohol and is now sober, launching his alcohol-free beer brand Bero, last week.
