Tobey Maguire offered $50m for Spidey 4 & 5 September 18th, 2008

The Times Online are report­ing that Tobey Maguire stands to earn $50m in salary and profit shares for film­ing Spider-man 4 and Spider-man 5 back to back over six months. As part of the deal Maguire has also been allowed time off dur­ing morn­ings and evenings to spend with his young daugh­ter — an excep­tional case due to the planned dura­tion of the shoot.

“Tobey admits he is obsessive-compulsive about every­thing he does, and rais­ing Ruby is no dif­fer­ent,” a friend said last week. “There’s no way Tobey would allow work, no mat­ter how well paid, to get between him and Ruby, and Sony realised that.”

Thanks again Robin!

mcguire has done so well the first 3 movies that the next 2 at $50 mil­lion is fair. my assump­tion after watch­ing movies since i can remem­ber at age 3 and i’m now 54…is that spi­der­man 4 is going to be one of the high­est sell­ing movies in the past 80 years. this is just my gut feeling.
