To the surprise of no one, the hilarious Tom Holland and Tom Holland (both British actors) meme saga has some basis in reality, and their big real-life crossover is insane , as it involves huge Marvel paychecks.
Holland spoke with Seth Meyers on his late night show (which starts around 8:50) to promote his role in Ryan Murphy’s upcoming FX anthology series Feud: Capote vs. “The Swan,” starring Truman Capote, Holland was asked if online confusion between him and Holland affected his daily life, and the answer was a resounding yes. Additionally, he once received Marvel money that didn’t belong to him because the two actors “briefly” shared the same agency.

Here’s the full quote from Holland describing the moment he received a rather unexpected email: “I went to see my friend who was doing theater in England. I was sitting there in the audience, having just spent $30,000 to do it. BBC show… Intermission came and I checked my email and received an email from the agency that read “Payment slip for first box office bonus for The Avengers. “Of course, Holland has worked with Disney in the past (on Pirates of the Caribbean movies), but he’s not yet part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The incident was quickly resolved, but it’s a hilarious anecdote worth sharing that also sheds some light on the ridiculous amount of money actors in the Marvel Cinematic Universe can earn back their advance salary.Holland didn’t reveal the full contents of the email, but shared more, saying: “It’s an amazing amount of money… It’s not his salary. It’s his first box office bonus . Not the whole box-office bonus, first one. And it’s more money than I’ve ever made before [seen]. That’s a seven-figure sum. “Knowing this is an ‘Avengers bonus,’ and looking at Holland’s performance at Marvel, this could very well be Infinity War money.
Tom Holland’s fourth Spider-Man movie is reportedly in active development in addition to more potential Avengers appearances, but the actor has yet to confirm or deny anything, adding that he feels “right” Spider-Man is very protective” and only wants to go back if the story is good enough.
