Tom Holland Links Sobriety to Career Growth at Alcohol-Free BERO Event

His sober turn now underpins a wellness brand built for a generation drinking less.

Overview

  • At his BERO Padel Classic in Los Angeles, the 29-year-old actor said quitting alcohol made him clearer, more confident, and better at his job, with Zendaya on hand to support.
  • Holland said a 2022 Dry January exposed an unhealthy pull toward drinking, which led him to stop entirely after realizing he was thinking about alcohol throughout the day.
  • In 2024 he launched BERO, a non-alcoholic beer and lifestyle brand, and he is using alcohol-free social events like the padel tournament to promote community without booze.
  • He told USA Today that alcohol had been getting in the way of his professional life and that waking up clear-headed every day helped his career “blossom,” while friends around him now drink less at gatherings.
  • He noted that many in Gen Z are choosing low- or no-alcohol options, and he and Zendaya next return to screens in Spider-Man: Brand New Day in July, linking his personal shift with business moves and upcoming work.
