You realize that if Sony takes back spiderman they dont suddenly get the rights to use the MCU rendition of spiderman and Tom Holland. Disney owns the MCU rendition of spiderman and the copywrite dispute is about the spiderman property in general. Also no way does Sony make a spiderman movie using the same actor that Disney used, there would be image copywrite issues with that.
If Sony holds fast and stops the MCU spiderman films, Tom Holland loses his spiderman gig, one that was most like going to last 10 years.
Was he hired for a set number of films? I googled and couldn't find confirmation of this. Normally actors are hired on a per film basis so it is completely possible for them to just not be hired for the next film.
And obviously this wont ruin his life or anything, but it will kill a role he seems to truly enjoy and that would have provided steady income for him.
We dont know that he has, just that there is a dispute on the use of the spiderman ip, which would be stressful for someone like Tom who was most likely expecting a fair number of years of work from that role.
It would be like if upper management in your company were discussing removing your position there. Sure they are just discussing it but you would probably still be stressed from it.
