The internet has fully taken advantage of the fact that staying home is common practice right now. At-home workouts continue to flood the internet as well as memes, and anything else fitting of the current situation. Well, most recently, Spiderman star Tom Holland did a challenge where he put on a shirt while doing a handstand against a wall.

He appeared to have a bit of a struggle at first but eventually got it on. Then afterward, he nominated fellow Marvel actors Jake Gyllenhaal and Ryan Reynolds, along with Harrison Osterfield

Here’s the clip…

Jake Gyllenhaal went on to complete the challenge while Ryan Reynolds was simply not interested, of which he responded on his Instagram by saying, “nooo“. Although, it was all in good spirits of course. Gyllenhaal, on the other hand, nominated another Marvel actor, in Hugh Jackman, in addition to rapper 50 Cent, and his own sister Maggie Gyllenhaal who was the only one to do it so far.

Then Maggie tried it and breezed through the challenge. Afterward, she nominated an all-female team including actress Jessica Chastain, stand-up comedian Sarah Kate Silverman, cook and author Alison Roman, and U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

American Olympian Lolo Jones saw the challenge and thought she’d join in on the fun as well. 

When I saw Spider-Man and Jake Gyllenhaal do a handstand challenge with one shirt… first I want to thank them for having their shirt off because I haven’t seen a man in 25 days, she wrote on Twitter”.

Jones did it a little differently though adding her own style by drinking wine before and after she completed the challenge. 

There’ll probably be more drooling over these shirtless actors than the challenge actually being of much interest to some fans. But it’ll still be interesting to see if any of these nominated A-list figures accept the challenge!
