Hollywood’s Spider-Man, aka Tom Holland, became famous for portraying Peter Parker in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Known for his youthful energy, Holland quickly became a fan favorite after debuting his role as Spider-Man in Captain America: Civil War. He delivered several MCU standalone films, including Spider-Man: Homecoming, Spider-Man: Far From Home, and Spider-Man: No Way Home. Beyond the universe of superheroes, Holland showcased his acting prowess in other genres, including Cherry, Uncharted, The Crowded Room, and The Impossible.
Although he is especially loved for his Spider-Man role, the actor rejected many other blockbuster films, one of which happened to be with Dwayne Johnson.
Undoubtedly, Holland will soon be one of the most bankable actors in the industry, given the rate at which he is growing. While his fame as Spider-Man earned him a role in other hit films, he had to drop other roles because of a time clash with MCU projects. Despite being offered a high salary, he had to let go of Johnson’s Jumanji: Welcome To Jungle.
Apart from playing Spider-Man, Holland has dominated Hollywood with his exceptional acting skills and quickly became a valuable asset to the industry. His roles in other projects, such as Uncharted, prove his worth as a dynamic actor. When Holland was working on his multiple MCU projects, he was offered a role in Jumanji. However, due to scheduling conflicts, the actor couldn’t accept the role, which was ultimately given to Nick Jonas.
After its release, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle earned a whopping $962 million at the box office. Given the amount he earned from the Spider-Man trilogy and the upcoming MCU projects, Holland didn’t regret missing a great opportunity. He is set to appear in future Marvel projects, which could accumulate to his total net worth.
According to several reports, Holland was paid $250,000 for his first film as Spider-Man in Captain America: Civil War. He earned $500,000 for Spider-Man: Homecoming and $3 million for Avengers: Endgame.
Holland’s Spider-Man 4 is confirmed and will be filmed early next year.
