"He is so cool. Robert Downey Jr. is awesome. I first met him at my first screen test and obviously I thought Robert was terrifying but once I met him, he was down to earth, really cool and easy going. We got on really well and we work very well together. I'm just so happy these guys gave me the opportunity," Holland said at the premiere of "Captain America: Civil War" on Tuesday evening here.
