Tom Hollander mistakenly received a bonus for “Avengers.” An impressive amount

Tom Hollander is a 56-year-old actor known, among others, from the series “White Lotus” or an appearance in “Pirates of the Caribbean”. On Tuesday, in the “Late Night” program hosted by Seth Meyers, he admitted that he is often confused with Tom Holland, the 27-year-old who plays Spider-Man in the latest Marvel films. Mistakes always occur in “non-visual contexts”, including in the accounting department of Hollander’s agency, which also briefly represented the younger Briton.

Hollander also joked that he is often introduced to someone who is “very, very excited” to meet him. However, enthusiasm quickly gives way to disappointment when the fan recognizes an older actor instead of Tom Holland.

Holland, 27, played the role of Peter Parker, aka Spider-Man, in several hit Marvel films, including “Captain America: Civil War,” “Avengers: Infinity War,” “Avengers: Endgame,” “Spider- Man: Homecoming”, “Spider-Man: Far From Home” i “Spider-Man: No Way Home.” It is not known exactly how much the young actor earned from these performances. However, according to “US Sun”, the Briton was supposed to earn $10 million for the last solo film about the adventures of Spider-Man, “Spider-Man: No Way Home”.
