This mistake almost cost Tom Holland a big Avengers bonus

Tom Holland, not to be confused with…

Tom Holland saw his career change when he became the new face of Peter Park, aka Spiderman, in the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe). It’s 2016 Captain America Civil War who made his first appearance in this role. And since then he has been at the center of several films dedicated to the superhero, including the most recent Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021). But the actor is also known for his mistakes in revealing elements about Marvel productions that should have remained secret. Which became a fan-favorite gag.

However, it’s not just Tom Holland who can make mistakes. And this time the actor almost fell victim to a “small mistake”. While he had to receive a significant financial bonustied to the box office results of one of the Avengers films (endless war OR End of the game), his check went to someone else. Another actor named… Tom Hollander.

A big disappointment

It’s not difficult to understand what happened seeing the strong similarity between their names. This is the English actor, seen in the saga Pirates of the CaribbeanIn Pride and Prejudice or even inside The King’s Man: First Missionwho revealed this funny anecdote, during the Deep night by Seth Meyers. He explained that he was briefly represented by the same artistic agency. And of course there was confusion in accounting. In fact, he received an e-mail informing him of the payment of a substantial bonus linked to the box officeOpponents. Which obviously immediately surprised Tom Hollander: “I said to myself, I don’t think I’m in Avengers“.

Of course, the mistake was corrected, but above all it was the opportunity for Tom Hollander to discover that he was far from earning as much as the Spider-Man interpreter, given that he had just been paid “only” 30,000 dollars for a BBC show. It was not without humor that he said that since then he has become very humble again.

My sense of self-importance disappeared very quickly. But this is business. There are ups and downs. We go from hero to zero.

Tom Hollander admitted yes regularly confused with Tom Holland. At least before being seen in person. He would have thus unintentionally disappointed the children who hoped to see Peter Parker’s face. A “difficult” situation for him, because as he himself says, it was already there before.
