Young star of 'The Impossible' Tom Holland is "over the moon" for Naomi Watts' Oscar nomination.
The 16-year-old actor plays Naomi's eldest son in tsunami disaster film, for which she has received a Best Actress nomination at the Academy Awards, and the young star is ecstatic for his on-screen mother.
He said: "I'm over the moon for her. She deserves it because she's incredible. I'm so happy for her."
The breakthrough star - who won the award for Young Performer of the Year at the ceremony - explained that much like in the film, Naomi, 44, was a mother figure to him on set.
He said: "She was very like [a] mum. On a film set you can be like, 'Can I get a can of Coke?' and a runner will get it for you. She'll say, 'No, Tom. You've had three already. Calm down with the Coke' and I'm like, 'But mum!' "
Tom also revealed some valuable advice the actress gave him, adding: "She gave me this piece of advice and it's that there's no such thing as an individual performance. You can either work as a team or not work at all. It doesn't work otherwise. You can always tell when you watch a film, 'Those actors didn't get along on set'.
"If you try your utmost best on set for the other person, they'll try their best for you and then you'll give a better person. It's all about being a team."
