Every Tom Holland Film and Show That Matters — and Where to Watch Them in India

Fifteen years old, playing Lucas in J. A. Bayona's account of a family separated by the 2004 tsunami, and holding the film's centre opposite Naomi Watts for long stretches. It is a considerably better performance than a debut has any business being, and the reason his eventual casting as Spider-Man was less of a gamble than it appeared.

Ron Howard's whaling disaster picture, with Holland as the young Thomas Nickerson opposite Chris Hemsworth. It lost money and is mostly forgotten, and it is on this list because it is the last film he made before Marvel — the end of the period when he was a promising British child actor rather than a global property.

Six minutes of screen time that reset the character. Spider-Man had been rebooted twice in fourteen years to diminishing returns; Holland's airport-fight appearance here was the point at which audiences agreed to try again. $1.15 billion, and none of it his responsibility.

$881 million, a high-school comedy rather than another origin story, and Michael Keaton playing the villain as a working man with a grievance. It is also where he was cast opposite Zendaya, which by 2026 has produced five films and a marriage neither of them has formally announced.

The film that gave him the single most-replayed scene of his career — the ending, on Titan — and which is why the character carries emotional weight the two previous screen Spider-Men never accumulated. $2.05 billion, seventh-biggest film ever made.

$1.13 billion, the first Sony-produced Spider-Man film to cross a billion, and effectively the epilogue to Avengers: Endgame two months earlier. It is also the film in which MJ becomes a lead rather than a running joke.

The clearest early statement of intent: a grim Netflix southern gothic in which he plays a young man who solves his problems with violence, opposite Robert Pattinson, Bill Skarsgård and Sebastian Stan. It is the least Spider-Man thing on the list and the film that made the Nolan casting legible in retrospect. Streaming on Netflix in India.

The Russo brothers' adaptation of Nico Walker's novel, with Holland as an army medic who returns from Iraq into opioid addiction and bank robbery. It was savaged and it is the most physically committed work he has done — the performance is not the problem with the film. On Apple TV+.

$1.92 billion, the eighth-biggest film ever released, and the one that put three live-action Spider-Men on screen at once. It closes with the character stripped of everyone who knows him, which is the most consequential ending the franchise has given him. On JioHotstar and SonyLIV in India.

The attempt at a second franchise, adapted from the PlayStation series with Mark Wahlberg as Sully. It made around $407 million — enough for Sony to talk about a sequel and not enough for anyone to hurry. On Netflix and Prime Video in India.

An Apple TV+ limited series in which he plays a man arrested after a shooting in 1979 New York, opposite Amanda Seyfried. He has spoken since about how hard the shoot was and took an extended break afterwards. It divided critics sharply and is the most demanding thing he had done before The Odyssey.

Telemachus, in Christopher Nolan's adaptation of Homer — the first feature ever shot entirely on IMAX 70mm film, and now Nolan's highest-grossing picture at over $1.12 billion, ahead of both Dark Knight sequels. It opened to $263.8 million worldwide, the biggest global debut of Nolan's career. Nine years of trying to be taken seriously outside the suit, resolved in a single July weekend. Still in cinemas.

Two weeks after The Odyssey, and the biggest opening weekend in the history of cinema — $360.1 million domestically, past Avengers: Endgame — followed by $1 billion worldwide in six days. For a fortnight in the summer of 2026 he was in the two highest-grossing films of the year, in cinemas simultaneously — with Zendaya in both. No India streaming date has been announced.
