Jimmy Fallon has been added to the guest list for an upcoming dinner between actor Tom Holland and soccer player Erling Haaland, according to reports.
Holland, who recently appeared on "The Tonight Show," extended an invitation to Haaland to "hang out." Holland recounted to Fallon that Haaland had initially "snubbed" his request, a humorous observation that became a talking point on the show. The actor, 29, told Fallon that he had DM'd Haaland, 25, after seeing him at the F1 Monaco Grand Prix. "I just thought I’d shoot my shot, send him a text. I never imagined I’d talk about it on live television," Holland said.
Haaland later accepted the dinner invitation, posting on social media, "Dinner invitation accepted… A little late… Just name the place!" Sources indicate that Haaland has also extended an invitation to Fallon to join them for the meal. Details regarding the date and location of the dinner have not yet been disclosed.
Fallon's show has seen significant social media engagement related to both the World Cup and Holland's recent projects. According to The Wrap, "The Tonight Show" experienced its most successful social media week of the year, with views increasing by 39%. An Instagram video featuring Fallon singing about Holland and Haaland garnered over 5.6 million likes.
Holland is preparing for the release of "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" and has announced plans for a biopic about Fred Astaire, a project that he described as both exciting and daunting. Haaland, a breakout star of the 2026 World Cup, recently made headlines for bringing a stuffed raccoon back to Norway.
