Overview

• Tom Holland described the set of 'The Crowded Room' as a tense environment with frequent arguments and a lack of harmony, unrelated to creative differences.
• The actor credited his sobriety for helping him navigate the challenging atmosphere during production, which began shortly after he stopped drinking in 2022.
• Holland admitted the heavy subject matter of the series and the on-set conflicts took a significant toll on his mental health and led him to take a year-long break from acting.
• The psychological thriller, based on the 1981 book 'The Minds of Billy Milligan,' explores themes of mental health and criminal justice but received mixed reviews from critics and audiences.
• Holland, who also served as an executive producer on the series, leaned on close friends, colleagues, and his support network to manage the personal and professional pressures during filming.
