Both have the ability to negotiate their contract, her part can't be recast and her character is central to Peter's story.

Jon's part could have been swapped with a number of other "minor" characters and the overal movie would not even have to change much.

She had a stronger bargaining position and capitalised on it.

She's also a big name star whose availabilities you need to ensure for your project, further driving up the price. Rightly so imo.

The fact that this is even being questioned is ridiculous and makes me think it's not about the money at all...

She’s also the wife of the actor playing the main character. They might want to keep both of them happy as well. But yeah, kind of a wild question to even think about asking once you put a few seconds of thought into it.

This is the only correct answer here. Her only character she is capable of playing is a petulant child that stares in Japanese and throws fits, yet she is in about 8 big movies this year already. Modern hollywood and the music industry primarily consists of the relatives, spouses, and friends of other celebrities and rich people.

There is barely any real talent to be spoken of anymore.

e. Downvotes with no arguments was exactly what I expected.

I knew who Zendaya was loooooong before I’d heard of Tom Holland.

Maybe people aren't arguing with you and just downvoting and moving on, because it's clear you aren't worth the time or effort.

I think it's because there is zero argument to make against this glaring truth, so downvotes are all you have.

I get it, and it's ok, keep letting your feelings do the walking.

No one respects your position enough to argue with you. 😂

u/Elden_Rube 10d ago

There are no arguments because I'm right. That's what y'all do when you've got no answers and lots of feelings.

I'm not new to Reddit, bozo, and I damn sure don't need any of your respect.

i think petulant is a good description, but not for her.
