Tom Holland went under serious 'undercover' to prepare for his role in Uncharted.

Speaking on SiriusXM's Pop Culture Spotlight with Jessica Shaw, Holland revealed that he served as a bartender at a local restaurant in London to understand and get in to his role for Uncharted.

"For me, one of my favorite things about what we do for a living is when you get the opportunity to learn a new skill for a reason, other than you just want to give it a go," Holland said. "So I went to a bartending school. I ended up doing a few shifts at this bar in London, which was a lot of fun. I really enjoyed it. And it's a nice little set piece in the movie."

He added:"As word spread around town, and people started figuring out that 'apparently Tom Holland's bartending at this bar,' then the general manager started figuring it out," he said. "And then eventually I sort of got kicked out."

Uncharted hits theatres on Feb 18.
