Disaster Strikes: Tom Holland Gets Robbed of His Bonus Right Before His Eyes!

Another actor with a similar name reveals how he accidentally received a huge bonus that was supposed to go to the MCU’s Tom Holland.

Pirates of the Caribbean star Tom Hollander reveals how he accidentally received a “seven-figure” bonus that was supposed to go to the MCU’s Tom Holland.

Hollander was promoting his upcoming FX/Hulu TV series, Feud: Capote vs. The Swans, on a recent episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers. When asked whether anyone confused him with his fellow British actor, Hollander replied emphatically, “Yes — it’s been very difficult. ‘Cause, you know, I was here first [laughs]. But he’s enormously famous. Obviously, I don’t get mistaken for him, but in non-visual contexts, I am mistaken for him all the time. So, like, talking to utility companies, they say, ‘What’s your name?’ and go, ‘Tom Holland?’ because they’ve heard Tom Holland before. You go, ‘No, it’s Tom Hollan-der.'” He revealed young fans’ surprise and often disappointed reactions when they meet him, thinking they’re going to be introduced to Holland, instead. “‘My children are so excited to meet you,'” he recounts hearing, “And I go, ‘Are they, though?'”

The most surprising mix-up was from a time when Hollander and Holland shared the same agency. Hollander continued, “And people in the accounts department of my agency got confused, and we were with the same agency, briefly. And it was a terrible moment.” When visiting his friend who was performing in a theater, he checked his emails in the interval. “Payment advice slip – your first box office bonus for The Avengers,” he read. “And I thought…I don’t think I’m in The Avengers – and it was an astonishing amount of money – and it was not his salary. It was his first box office bonus! He was 20 or something!”

Tom Holland Is One of Many Spider-Men

When donning his Spider-Man mask, another person that Holland is often confused with is his fellow multiverse variants, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield. The latest rumors from industry insider Daniel Richtman reveal that Sony Pictures is considering bringing back Maguire and Garfield for Spider-Man 4. Holland revealed his openness to returning, but only with a good story. If that can be figured out, he shared that he would be “a fool not to return.”

Fans can check out Hollander’s upcoming TV series Feud: Capote vs. The Swans when it debuts on Jan. 31, 2024 on FX. The series can be summarized: “Acclaimed writer Truman Capote (Tom Hollander) surrounded himself with a coterie of society’s most elite women – rich, glamorous socialites who defined a bygone era of high society New York – whom he nicknamed ‘the swans.’ Enchanted by these doyennes, Capote befriends them and becomes their confidante, only to ultimately betray them by writing a thinly veiled fictionalization of their lives, exposing their most intimate secrets. When an excerpt is published, it effectively destroys his relationship with his swans, banishing him from the high society he so loved and sending him into a deep spiral from which he would ultimately never recover.”
