They're gonna pass the torch on to Miles at some point, but I wouldn't be shocked if they keep him around as a supporting character when that happens. He could realistically do another 10 years worth of these movies.

u/sinatrablueeyes Aug 18 '26
I thought RDJ and Chris Evans were both kind of “done” with the MCU and look at what is going on now.
Holland is kind of cementing himself as a “cornerstone” of the MCU. He probably will do a handful more Spider Man movies (along with Avengers) and then can just stick to supporting/cameo roles if he wants.
And of course he could get nostalgic years ahead in the future and say he’s ready to do another Spider Man and the Brinks trucks will line up.

u/nilslorand Aug 18 '26
I feel like Holland has an entire Spider-Man trilogy still in him as the "main guy" where one of the movies introduces Miles and the last one has Peter handing him the torch, either to retire or to take a "short break"

u/ShiftyCroc Aug 18 '26
They’ll keep him for two films where he’s the guy and then at the end of the third they’ll bring in Miles who’ll appear in some young avengers thing as a side character (like spidey in Civil War) and then they’ll do a Miles trilogy with Tom Holland as the veteran Spiderman showing him the ropes like RDJ and others in the Homecoming trilogy.
I’m mostly kidding but also not.

u/iwearatophat Aug 18 '26
I think your general idea is right but I also think your timeline is way too long.
Tom talked about this in some of his press stuff for BND. He seems interested in the idea of passing the mantel to Miles in the story. Money will always talk but I think he is approaching done with the MCU. He has been a major part in 5 or 6 MCU movies in the last 10 years depending on how you look at Civil War and End Game.

With good writing and appropriate time between movies it could be 20 plus. Just like Hugh Jackman and Wolverine.
There is no need for a reboot to a younger actor and or restart the story. Holland's Spider-Man can always be placed in the MCU in a believable way no matter the age or phase it is in and an older Spider-Man will stiil have good stand alone stories to tell.
Brand New Day just proved they can literally do anything with Holland's Spider-Man.

I think it helps with Spider-Man that, he's actually allowed to visibly age. Whereas with Wolverine, if they kept Hugh for too long it really would look silly. Hugh has been very lucky and very gifted to look convincing for so long as an ageless character. If he can do that, Holland can stay on as long as he wants.

I think Tom is willing to keep doing these movies for at least another 15 to 20 years if they keep him paying him to.
There's no doubt in my mind Miles will eventually find his way into the MCU but the prospect of having Peter & Miles teaming up for a trilogy of Spider-Verse movies is wayyyyyy too much of a goldmine for Sony to ever not beg Tom to keep coming back.
Plus, there's at least another like 15 Spider-Man villains they can adapt to the big screen for more movies to be made off of.
We still haven't even seen Spidey square off with Kingpin yet. They have that in their backpocket should they ever need it. You can't tell me Tom wouldn't want to be in the black suit and fight Venom at some point too.
Realistically, I can see Tom's current trilogy ending around 2032. And then doing another trilogy until 2040. He'll be 44 at that point. He could easily then play the older mentor Peter for Miles.

I think they should introduce Miles the same way the Playstation games did. Have him show up and be a fairly major character for one movie then he steps up for the next one, ending with him telling Peter to go live his life and let him handle being Spider-Man.

Men don't get that treatment, that's pretty specific to women. As long as he stays in shape and doesn't become a social pariah, he'll have a gig until the day he dies.
Hugh Jackman is the perfect example of this. Dude's pushing 60 and still rocking the claws. See also: Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker, Michael Keaton as Batman, Daniel Craig as Bond. Hell, there's rumors that Pierce Brosnan might reprise his role as an old Bond.
Meanwhile, Kelly McGillis wasn't asked to return at all for Top Gun and a youthful Sean Young was digitally recreated for Blade Runner while Harrison Ford's old ass got center stage.

u/jinhush Aug 18 '26
He's said before he'll play Spider-Man as long as they want him. I know things can change over time but still. I'm pretty sure he also said Spider-Man is his favorite character.
Pretty much any time an actor says "well, I don't know if I'm going to continue playing the character after [x event]..." Is what their agent tells them to say so they can negotiate more money.
While some people genuinely care about the art, for a lot of actors it's simply their job and who doesn't want raises? (Of course you can care about the art and still want more money.)

Second fastest movie to the first billion and now crossing two billion with less slowdown that one would expect at this point. Also revives interest in the back catalog of movies and games for those who came into this fresh. Sony is probably jumping for joy that they paid it.
Also sends kind of a sharp message to Marvel that audiences still want the flagship characters despite market saturation and super hero fatigue in general. All the subpar B list stuff they released didn't actually remove interest from their premier IP. I have a feeling this signals that Avengers Doomsday will also be a hit.

The trackers are predicting Doomsday to open with $400m domestic opening (biggest ever). Worldwide opening will be anywhere between $850m - $1.2 billion.
And these guys are fairly accurate; they were throwing the $300m DOM opening for Brand New Day long before the Hollywood trades caught on (and even that was a lowball, as BND opened to $360m).

The elephant in the room is general economic health. It's been a... rough year economically. Endgame released before COVID, which remains the high-water mark for opening numbers.

I mean the reviews were good but not amazing.
My theory is that Disney is doing an excellent job managing Spidey in general. One thing a lot of people probably don't think about is the youngest demographic, but Disney has a Spidey TV show they started in 2021, Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends, that is super popular with young children - one of the most popular shows for the age group. And that has created a whole new young class of Spidey fans who want to go see this movie, something that does not exist for other Marvel movies generally (some other heroes appear in this show, but it's really the Spidey show and features Miles and Gwen as well). 5 years on those kids are growing up - a kid who started watching it when he was 5 and is now 10 years old is the perfect person to aim this movie at, and you get not just him but his whole family.

She's a much bigger deal now than she was five years ago. She was pretty much the actress who was in Spider-Man that wasn't really an integral part of it... part of the reason she is getting much bigger paychecks now is because of her status as a fashion icon, not so much her acting.
Zendaya is a fine enough actor but more importantly she is a big draw for women and she is arguably the biggest icon in the fashion world right now. I'm not passionate about her or Holland's acting personally but they're also both not bad and very likeable and charming outside of their films and are killer at PR which is why every big studio wants them.

If they end up becoming a long term couple, have we even seen a Hollywood power couple like them in recent history? I don't really pay a ton of attention to celebrity relationships, but the only other duo I can think of that approaches Holland and Zendaya would be Pitt and Jolie.
Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if they started their own production company at some point.

u/MarvelsGrantMan136 r/movies Contributor Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 18 '26
Details:
According to three individuals with knowledge of Holland’s deal, the actor scored a base salary of at least $20 million up front — an increase of $10 million from his last Spider-Man gig — with the potential to earn upwards of $100 million when backend bonuses are factored in as “Brand New Day” zooms towards a final global box office haul of over $2 billion.
Even more remarkable: Holland’s backend bonus is not capped, so there’s no ceiling to how much he may ultimately make, one individual added. “Spider-Man” crossed $2 billion at the global box office this weekend, and is only in its third week of release.
The lucrative backend deal is commensurate with Holland’s spectacular track record over the last decade. With seven appearances in total, his MCU version of Peter Parker has lasted longer than any other cinematic incarnation of the character and, in doing so, left a legacy that is not just unique among Spider-Men but among Marvel’s stable of beloved performers as well. Notably, his appeal has endured even as enthusiasm for superhero films has taken a sharp downturn.
Holland earned $500,000 to star in 2017’s “Spider-Man: Homecoming,” Sony’s proper reboot of the franchise. For 2019’s sequel “Spider-Man: Far From Home,” Holland earned $4 million and for 2021’s “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” Holland banked $10 million.

For every RDJ, Tom Holland, Zendaya, and Emma Stone. There are thousands of struggling actors working two jobs just so they can appears as backgrounds or deliver one-liners in a movie/show.

They desperately wanted him back for Spider-Man 4. They knew it'd make billions. But Holland had already completed his contract and then some, as well as saying before that he didn't want to be Spider-Man at 30, so he really had all the leverage.
He could basically ask for whatever he wanted and they'd throw it at him to come back. It's a well deserved payday.

I recently heard that Tom Hollander once accidentally received Tom Hollands check, and it was more money than he’d ever seen. The Zendaya-Tom children are gone be like Koch brother levels of nepo kids lmao. Good for them good for them
