Tom Holland Admits He’s Never Ridden WEB SLINGERS at Dinseyland’s Avengers Campus
When the Avengers Campus officially opened at Disney California Adventure at Disneyland Resort much fanfare was made about the fact that Spider-Man star Tom Holland actually made the official pre-show introduction for the film but according to a recent piece in the Orange County Register, the actor has yet to ride the attraction!
This interesting fact came to light as a result of some social media banter between Holland and other Marvel star Anthony Mackie who has taken over the role of Captain America.
Mackie took to Instagram after a visit to Disney California Adventure where he couldn’t possibly waste an opportunity to upstage Holland. You can check out the post below:

As you can see, Mackie wrote, “Congrats on the Disneyland attraction kid.” The Marvel star continued, “Now, I bet u can’t beat my score.”
Holland, who has been on a press tour for Spider-Man: No Way Home was recently asked by Comicbook.com whether he has accepted Mackie’s challenge to which the actor admitted, โYou know, he can brag about beating me on my own ride โ which I havenโt actually ridden yet โ but until heโs got his own ride, heโs got nothing.โ
Mackie on the other hand has made previous appearances at Avengers Campus most notably to unveil the new Marvel-themed land during the Grand Opening last June.
As the OC Register mentions, Mackie’s high score in WEB SLINGERS was a respectable 432,400 which was the second best of the hour that he rode. However, Disney Imagineers have previously teased scores of over 1 million so he still has some work to do.
However, as you may know Holland does have an awesome visual presence on the ride. He toured Walt Disney Imagineering’s warehouse where WEB SLINGERS was developed and where he cut the pre-show scenes. This includes demonstrating for audiences how to sling webs on the ride using hand gestures.
If you’ve yet to check out this new Avengers attraction its pretty neat. The ride uses gesture-recognition technology to track the body and eye movements of riders allowing them to sling webs from their wrists.
