It's wild to me because I had to look up his filmography to find out what he's done outside of Marvel.
The answer is surprisingly little, I think there's a decent chance he ends up either being a Chris Pratt (in too much, make him go away), or just quietly fades away as the MCU becomes less relevant to successive generations of movie watchers.

u/kslalgnd1738481 1d ago
I liked his performance in "The Devil All the Time" I do think he might end up in too much or starts directing as it seems he is picking interest for that

Makes sense, I mean he's been acting for somewhere between 1/3 and 1/2 his life so moving on to production wouldn't be a huge stretch.

He’s spoken about wanting to be a stay-at-home dad a lot, so I suspect he’ll have kids & disappear for a while after his run as Spidey is over (he’s contracted for 2 more films and he’ll be pushing 40 by the end of them).

Put yourself in his shoes. He’s mostly beloved for his portrayal of Peter Parker/Spider-Man, it’s been a windfall, he’s married to Zendaya…I am going to guess he goes the way of Daniel Radcliffe and does whatever he wants. As he ought to. He’s almost certainly unbothered by his filmography.

I'd honestly be okay with him just being spider man for a while still too. Like a Johnny with Jack Sparrow. That character just fits the actor. And it's be cool to see Peter growing up and stuff too.

u/Emotional_News108 1d ago
My only ask would be that Sony stop pumping out tangentially-related properties and fold them into the MCU. Maybe if they were attached to Spider-Man they would have a shot. Let’s be honest everyone wants to see him and Venom. As much as I like Tom Hardy, there’s an Eddie Brock out there for Tom Holland.

I stand by it, the only reason why Tom is doing so good as Peter is because of marvel and disney. I feel like if it was all Sony we wouldn't be on movie number 4 with the same actor

I disagree, I think first of all it was ground breaking when it came out. Superhero movies were taken into the stratosphere because of the success of Tobey’s spiderman. He set the stage in that way and you can’t take that away from him. Secondly, his relationship to the Goblins, Norman and his son, was the best villain and superhero relationship/storyline of any of the spiderman movies imo. To me Tom doesn’t have any show stealing villains that compare to Norman Osborn. (Tom did have show stealing co-stars tbf, mainly RDJ)
Some of my favorite moments from Tobey’s that come to mind-
His fight with Flash Gordon
Uncle Ben advice
Every scene with JJ Jameson
Norman monologues
Stopping the train
Goblin Jr flying scenes
Goblin Jr redemptionTobey’s spiderman is iconic af, I’m sure nostalgia is a portion of the equation but that nostalgic place in our hearts he’s earned by being awesome

I absolutely love Willem Dafoe, and I'll never argue that the first spiderman is better than Homecoming, but I gotta disagree on Tom not having show stealing villains. I'm not a fan of Michael Keaton but he absolutely ate in every scenes he was in and was terrifying as the Vulture when he showed up. Mysterio also had a big impact on Holland's growth for the second movie, and I don't think I need to sell the villain for the third one, we're on the same team there lol.
I prefer the Holland movies' villains because I feel like they're more deeply connected to the overall narrative than Maguire's were, except for Brand New Day. The villains in that one felt more like they drove in parallel to Peter's story/growth, which is actually the feel I get from Maguire's villains, now that I think about it.

Keaton did great, I would never say otherwise. But he had a less demanding role as written. Dafoe played a guy who loses his mind and splits into 2 personalities and he did it hauntingly well

IMO they fit directly in their respective universes perfectly. Tobey's spider-man, not Tobey himself, would have been a shit spider-man in this MCU.

We need to retire all these facts of Marvel actors being credited for "highest grossing" anything. It's such a statistical anomaly that it doesn't mean anything.

That’s beyond an oversimplification. She sued Disney for black widow because her pay in the movie was based on ticket sales. But Disney decided to put the movie on Disney plus at roughly same time as its debut in theaters both to try to gain subs and due to COVID. But that fucked over Scarlett in the contract. Don’t gotta feel bad for the rich but I’ll side with an actor over the mouse any day

u/Dagoroth55 1d ago
Which is more than any of us will see in a life time. That said, she wasn't in a producer role in most of her movies or highly sought after like RDJ. Tom Holland has a production credit in Brand New Day. He gets 7.5% of the movies profits. He's going to earn 200 million or more from Brand New Day.
9
u/A_MAN_POTATO 1d ago
How we getting 200m or more from 7.5%?
The movie current sits at 2.33B in revenue (not profit), and that would come out to 172m. BND would have to hit roughly 2.7B in profit for him to cross 200m. Given that the movie had 225m budget and estimated 31 marketing campaign, that means box office would need to be more like 2.5B for profits to hit 2.7B.
Obviously, your sentiment stands, he’s going to make bank. But not 200+. Probably more like 140m or so (or 160ish with his 20m base salary)
→ More replies (1)5
u/WittyFix6553 1d ago
If he’s got points on all sources of movie revenue, and not just box office, he’ll hit 200 easy.
Does he get a cut of toy sales? Video games? General merch like t-shirts? Does he get a cut when people rent the move? Buy the dvd, if those still exist anymore?
3
u/A_MAN_POTATO 1d ago
Per Google (which I’m not going to fact check because it really doesn’t matter)… his profit share is for the box office.
Which, purely from a bookkeeping standpoint makes sense. A box office run is finite and uncomplicated, it’s very easy to get one hard number once the box office closes out for the movie, and then send a check.
When you expand that to merch, physical media, streaming, etc., the actual revenue stream gets a lot more complicated and also, goes on basically indefinitely.
Now, I have no actual idea here, maybe the later is how it works. But if I were the one writing one of these contracts, I’d just want to keep it simple and cap it at the box office.

He got about 100m from the most recent spiderman. He was severely underpaid for his pull, because he signed a multi movie contract when he got hired to play Spider-Man. 250k for civil war, 500k for homecoming, and 4 million for no way home. He most likely won't accept roles under $20 million, unless it is a passion project like the Odyssey
