SPIDEY CENTS

How much the Spider-Man stars really earn and Tom Holland does NOT get paid the most

TOM Holland is the latest A-lister to rock the Spidey Suit after Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire. 

There are eight modern Spider-Man films total, so how much did the 25-year-old net compared to his Marvel predecessors?

HOW MUCH DID TOM HOLLAND GET PAID?

Tom Holland is rumored to have earned $10M for Spider-Man: No Way Home, which debuted on December 17, 2021.

The film is already a soaring success, grossing $1 billion worldwide within its first two weeks.

Tom reportedly earned $500k for his first high-flying solo flick - 2016's Spider-Man: Homecoming - and bonuses brought it to $1.5M.

He reportedly earned $4M for his second, 2019's Spider-Man: Far From Home.

The British actor got his start playing Billy Elliot on London's West End in 2008.

He co-starred with Zendaya in all three films, and the duo first had dating rumors flying in 2017.

HOW MUCH DID ANDREW GARFIELD GET PAID?

Andrew Garfield was the Spidey-successor to Tobey Maguire.

He reportedly made $500K for his first, 2012's The Amazing Spider-Man.

Andrew made $1M for 2014's The Amazing Spider-Man 2, before bonuses.

He was supposed to sling in a salary of $2M for the third, but the third film never happened.

Andrew's spin on Spider-Man resulted in some of the less-beloved and less-profitable films of the bunch.

Both grossed under $800M, the least of all Spider-Man films.

HOW MUCH DID TOBEY MAGUIRE GET PAID?

Tobey Maguire reportedly made much more than the other Spider-Men.

He was the first actor to embody a modern-day Peter Parker, doing so in Sam Raimi's trilogy.

For 2002's Spider-Man, he reportedly made $4M.

For 2004's Spider-Man 2, Tobey got a massive pay increase, earning $17.5M. He also reportedly earned 5 percent of the back-end gross.

For 2007's Spider-Man 3, Tobey reportedly earned an equally impressive $15M, with a rumored 7.5 percent on the back end.

Spider-Man 3 was made on a super-sized budget of $258M, making it the most expensive Spider-Man film and the most costly Marvel movie aside from the three most recent Avengers installments.

SPIDEY REUNION

Both Andrew and Tobey had cameos in Spider-Man: No Way Home.

They played different iterations of Spider-Man in the 2021 Sony smash.

Funnily enough, as a Twitter user recently pointed out, all three actors were rumored to have dated their Spider-Man co-stars after meeting on set.

Andrew and Emma Stone famously dated, as did Tobey and Kirsten Dunst (though they were the only pair to pull off that upside-down kiss).

Tom and Zendaya would make the trilogy complete.
