Tom Holland tells an amusing story about Erling Haaland completely ignoring his DM

Tom Holland tells an amusing story about Erling Haaland completely ignoring his DM

Tom Holland appeared on "The Tonight Show" and told a story about how Erling Haaland ignored his DM.

A man sitting on a talk show gestures his arms wide in a shrug. The caption at the bottom reads,

Just because you're an A-list actor, doesn't mean you'll always get a response when you slide into someone's DMs.

That was apparently Tom Holland's experience when he DM'd Norweigan footballer Erling Haaland to ask if he wanted to go for dinner. In the Tonight Show clip above, Holland explains that he didn't even get a rejection — just a tumbleweed.

"I'll tell you what, that is exactly the type of humbling experience that is important for actors," says the Odyssey star, looking on the bright side. "You know, you'll be like, I'll text him, I'll take him to dinner. Not even a response. Not an excuse, not an 'Oh, I'm busy tonight, I'm playing football'...nada."
