Tom Holland Is About To Make Over $100 MILLION For Spider-Man β And That Number Isn't Even Capped π°π·οΈ
The 30-year-old actor got $20 million up front for 'Brand New Day' β but the backend bonuses have NO LIMIT, and sources say he's already past the $100M mark. Yes, really.
If you thought Tom Holland was already living his best life, buckle UP β because the Spider-Man star is about to swing into the stratosphere with a payday that'll make your jaw DROP.
According to Page Six, multiple sources "with knowledge" of Holland's deal with Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios say the 30-year-old is on track to make over $100 million for "Spider-Man: Brand New Day." And here's the kicker: that number ISN'T EVEN CAPPED. π€―
Show Me The Money πΈ
Let's break down this absolutely bonkers deal, shall we?
Holland's base salary for his fourth solo outing as Peter Parker was "at least" $20 million β which is $10 million MORE than he made for 2021's "Spider-Man: No Way Home," Page Six reports. But wait, there's MORE.
The real magic is in the backend bonuses, which sources say could reach upwards of $100 million. And unlike most Hollywood deals where there's a cap on how much you can make? Holland's backend bonus is completely uncapped.
Translation: The more the movie makes, the more HE makes. Period.
"He will make at least" $100 million, a source told The Wrap (via Page Six).
The Tea β
- Tom Holland got $20M up front for "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" β double his "No Way Home" salary
- His backend bonuses are UNCAPPED and sources say he's already past $100 million total
- The film has crossed $2 BILLION worldwide and is still going strong
And The Box Office Is GOING OFF
Okay, so WHY is Tom making this much money? Well, "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" is absolutely DESTROYING at the box office, and we mean that in the best way possible.
The Destin Daniel Cretton-directed film opened with a record-breaking $360 million domestic debut out of its $932 million worldwide opening weekend, according to Page Six. It cleared $1 billion after just SIX DAYS in theaters.
And now? The film has officially crossed the $2 billion mark worldwide, making it only the second-fastest film to reach that threshold and joining an elite club of just SEVEN other films to ever hit $2 billion. We are NOT okay. π
That list includes "Titanic," "Avatar," "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," "Avengers: Infinity War," "Avengers: Endgame," "Avatar: The Way of Water," and "Ne Zha 2."
He's Earned Every Penny
Look, we know $100 million sounds absolutely WILD β and it is! But when you consider that Holland has been playing Spider-Man since he was a teenager, has starred in one of the most successful franchises in cinema history, and is now delivering a film that's literally breaking records left and right?
Yeah, get that bag, Tom. π°
Plus, the man just got secretly married to Zendaya (his co-star and on-screen love interest), so honestly? This is just the cherry on top of what sounds like the best year EVER.
What's Next?
With "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" still dominating theaters in its third week, Holland's final payday could end up being even BIGGER than the already-astronomical $100 million mark. The film is currently chasing the domestic box office crown held by "Star Wars: The Force Awakens."
Comic book fans can now turn their attention to "Avengers: Doomsday," set for release this December, which will reportedly pay Robert Downey Jr. a cool $100 million for BOTH "Doomsday" and next year's "Avengers: Secret Wars" combined, Page Six previously reported.
So basically, superhero money is INSANE right now. And we're here for it.
Do you think Tom Holland deserves this massive payday, or is $100M+ too much for ANY actor? Sound off in the comments! π
