As previously announced, Tom Holland has been cast as Marvel’s new Spider-Man.

And we know what everyone is now thinking: They’re coming out with ANOTHER Spider-Man?!?

Also: Who the heck is Tom Holland?!?

The 19-year old British actor is likely best known for having played the son of Naomi Watts in The Impossible, an emotional film that chronicled a family’s journey after getting caught in the tsunami that hit Thailand in 2004.

But Holland actually got his start as a dancer in Billy Elliott, initially as a supporting player and then as the title character himself.

Take a look back at a young Holland in the above video and learn more about him from those who worked with the actor on Billy Elliott.

(Also, see him dance!)
