Tom Holland is not letting even ancient Greek literature steal his girl.
In a recent interview alongside The Odyssey costars Robert Pattinson, Matt Damon and Anne Hathaway, he addressed a theory about Homer’s epic referring to Damon’s Odysseus and wife Zendaya’s Athena.
“‘Did Athena love Odysseus romantically?’” Holland read aloud in a Wired interview posted July 16. “No, because she’s married to me.”
Prompting smiles from his fellow castmates, Damon—dad to Alexia, 27, Isabella, 20, Gia, 17, and Stella, 15, with wife Luciana Damon—added, “Yep, good answer.”
And later, the Good Will Hunting star continued the bit while answering a question about what Athena taught Holland’s character Telemachus.
“‘What does Athena teach Telemachus?’” Pattinson asked, and Damon noted without missing a beat, “True love.”
Holland’s precious declaration of his marriage to Zendaya is especially sweet, as the couple have been extremely private about details surrounding their nuptials. Since Law Roach confirmed they had tied the knot in March, both Holland and Zendaya have made sparing references to their union.
