A meme account shared a Photoshopped image, which saw Tom Holland as Ben Tennyson in a live-action version of Ben 10, with comments including "C'mon, Netflix, make this happen," and "I think he'd make a quality Ben 10".
The page then asked it's 15.5 million Instagram followers what they thought of the idea of Tom playing Ben, only to find Tom had actually commented.
"No," simply replied Tom, having already turned down appearances in the likes of Back To The Future, after he said it was one of the few perfect movies, and wouldn't want to attempt to recreate it.
Netflix's The Devil All the Timerecently dropped a trailer, and saw Tom lead a star-studded cast, including Robert Pattinson, Bill Skarsgård and fellow Marvel star, Sebastian Stan.
