Tom Holland’s $13.6 Billion Box Office Run: Can Spider-Man Star Crash the Top 3 After Two Massive 2026 Hits?
With The Odyssey crossing $1 billion and Spider-Man: Brand New Day racing towards potentially $2.5 billion, Tom Holland is rapidly climbing Hollywood’s all-time box-office rankings.
Tom Holland is having the kind of year most actors can only dream about.
In 2026, the Spider-Man star has found himself at the centre of two enormous global blockbusters, and the numbers could dramatically change his position among Hollywood’s highest-grossing actors.
His latest film, The Odyssey, directed by Christopher Nolan, has reportedly crossed the $1 billion mark worldwide. Meanwhile, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has taken the box office to another level, with reported global earnings of around $1.6 billion by its second weekend.
And the film is still running.
If its momentum continues, some projections suggest the new Spider-Man adventure could eventually approach $2.5 billion worldwide.
That could have a major impact on Holland’s career box-office ranking.
Tom Holland is already among Hollywood’s biggest earners
According to the figures cited in recent box-office rankings, films featuring Holland have collectively generated more than $13.6 billion worldwide.
That already places him among the top 10 highest-grossing actors in Hollywood history.
But Spider-Man: Brand New Day could push him considerably higher.
If the film reaches the projected heights, Holland could potentially move towards the top three, putting him in direct competition with two of the biggest box-office stars of the modern era — Zoe Saldana and Scarlett Johansson.
Both actresses have benefited enormously from their involvement in blockbuster franchises, particularly the Avatar and Marvel Cinematic Universe films.
The $15 billion club is getting closer
The next major milestone for Holland could be the $15 billion mark.
At present, Saldana and Johansson sit around that territory in the cited all-time rankings, with reported totals of approximately $15.47 billion and $15.40 billion, respectively.
Holland is still some distance away, but the extraordinary performance of Spider-Man: Brand New Day could dramatically reduce the gap.
A final worldwide gross above $2 billion would strengthen his position considerably and potentially move him closer to the elite group.
The race could become even more interesting as the careers of these stars continue to overlap with major franchise releases.
Spider-Man remains Holland’s biggest box-office weapon
There is little surprise that Spider-Man remains the biggest contributor to Holland’s box-office numbers.
His four solo Spider-Man films — Spider-Man: Homecoming, Spider-Man: Far From Home, Spider-Man: No Way Home and Spider-Man: Brand New Day — have collectively generated close to $4 billion, according to the figures cited.
The latest instalment has wasted little time making history.
Brand New Day reportedly crossed the $1 billion mark in just six days, making it the second-fastest film to reach the milestone, behind Avengers: Endgame.
That pace demonstrates the extraordinary commercial strength of the Spider-Man brand, but it also highlights Holland’s remarkable position within the franchise.
Avengers films have added billions to Holland’s total
Holland’s box-office résumé goes far beyond his individual Spider-Man movies.
His appearances in the Avengers films have also contributed significantly to his overall theatrical total.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has helped create an unusual situation for its leading stars: a single actor can accumulate billions in box-office revenue without every film being built primarily around that actor.
For Holland, his combination of Spider-Man’s global popularity and his involvement in Marvel’s ensemble films has created a formidable box-office portfolio.

Who is ahead of Tom Holland?
The current race at the top remains extremely competitive.
Zoe Saldana is reportedly leading the all-time ranking with around $15.47 billion, boosted further by the worldwide performance of Avatar: Fire and Ash.
Scarlett Johansson is close behind at approximately $15.40 billion.
Johansson, however, could have another opportunity to climb back to the top with future projects, including The Batman: Part II.
Behind the leading pair are other major Hollywood names, including Samuel L. Jackson, Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Pratt.
Holland’s reported total of more than $13.6 billion puts him firmly in that conversation.
2026 could change Tom Holland’s ranking forever
The most important factor is that Holland’s 2026 box-office story is not over yet.
The Odyssey has already crossed the billion-dollar milestone, while Spider-Man: Brand New Day continues its global theatrical run.
If the Spider-Man film manages to pass $2 billion, Holland’s position among the highest-grossing actors could receive a significant boost.
And if it comes anywhere close to the reported $2.5 billion projection, the gap between Holland and Hollywood’s top earners could shrink dramatically.
For an actor who first became a global superstar by wearing the Spider-Man suit, the irony is fitting.
Tom Holland may now be using Spider-Man to swing his way towards the very top of Hollywood’s all-time box-office leaderboard.
