The comic book movie “Spider-Man: New Day” has exceeded the $2 billion mark at the box office in just three weeks after its release, and leading actor Tom Holland will earn historic box office revenue. According to people familiar with the matter, the actor will receive a base salary of at least US$20 million, plus a generous and uncapped box office bonus, and the total payout may exceed US$100 million.
The financial breakthrough marks a monumental rise for the 30-year-old actor, whose journey in the Marvel Cinematic Universe began exactly a decade ago when his “Captain America: Civil War” grossed $250,000. The deal structure and eye-popping numbers put Holland on par with Robert Downey Jr. (Avengers: Endgame, $75 million), ultimately solidifying his status as Hollywood’s new core star in the mainstream.
