198Editor's note: The following interview contains spoilers for The Crowded Room and was conducted prior to the start of the SAG-AFTRA strike
For Apple TV’s miniseries, The Crowded Room, actor Tom Holland not only stars in the psychological drama but serves as a producer with co-writer and executive producer, Akiva Goldsman. In a previous spoiler-free discussion with Collider’s Steve Weintraub, we learned what decisions Holland was making behind the scenes and how much involvement he had in production. If you've seen the series finale, which is now streaming, then you’re probably stunned by that ending. Below you can watch or read Weintraub’s full spoiler conversation with Holland about some of those tough decisions.
The Crowded Room, which was inspired by and adapted for television from a novel by Daniel Keyes, takes place after a cataclysmic shooting in the middle of New York City in the 1970s. Young Danny Sullivan (Holland) is arrested for his involvement in the shocking crime and is facing a number of felonies, but maintains his innocence. When a curious investigator, Rya Goodwin (Amanda Seyfried), takes the time to dig into his past, the two of them make some jarring discoveries that upend Danny’s life as he knows it. The series also features Emmy Rossum, Sasha Lane, Will Chase, and Lior Raz.
Last chance to turn back – if you haven’t seen the full 10 episodes of The Crowded Room, you’ve been warned. During their interview, Holland talks about the difficulty of those last moments, telling Weintraub, “My final scene on the stand is a scene that I don't think I will ever beat in my career.” He shares the long process of finding the show’s conclusion, his thoughts on the relationships going forward, and the open-ended possibilities, asking, “Is there more to this story?” For all of this and more on how they determined how to portray Danny’s mind and the Easter eggs in the opening credits, check out the spoiler interview below.
