“White Lotus” star Tom Hollander told Late Night’s Seth Meyers how all the hype went down when he mistakenly received a salary intended for “Spider-Man” actor Tom Holland due to a mix-up at the agency that represented them both, reports BBC.

“I was with the same agents for a short time and the accounting people got confused. It was very difficult because I was here first, but he is extremely famous,” he joked.

Explaining how he discovered the mistake, Hollander said he was in the exhibition booth and watched a friend being paid £300.

“I was sitting smugly in the audience, having just done a BBC show for £30,000 or something that would keep me going for the next year or so, thinking, ‘Well, that’s great, I’m really thriving.’

During a break, Hollander says, he was checking his e-mail and saw a check that said “Avengers Cashier Bonus.”

“It was an incredible amount of money,” the 56-year-old actor told Meyers.

“It was not his salary. It was his first box office bonus. Not all cash bonus, the first. And it was more money than [văzusem vreodată]. It was a seven-figure sum.”

“My sense of arrogance is gone,” he added.

Holland played Spider-Man in six films of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

“Of course he doesn’t mistake me for him, but in a non-visual context he constantly mistakes me for him. … When I am introduced to someone, they are very excited children, then confused, then disappointed.”
