Tom Holland's movies in order: as a child, Spider-Man and more

Without a doubt, we are facing one of the actors of the moment, boosted by the success of the films he has starred in the Marvel universe but, also, for having known how to move outside those records so as not to be pigeonholed in the role of Peter Parker. So much so that, taking a look at his barely 14-year career, we find productions of all genres. So we have decided to review, one by one, all the films that he has starred in or, at least, appeared in one of the main roles.

From Billy Elliot to The Impossible

Tom Holland's movies in order

The truth is that little can be said at this point about an actor who is barely 26 years old, who was born in London in 1996 and who at 12 was already starring in the lead role of the musical Billy Elliot , singing and dancing on stage. Although its baptism of fire we have to go look for it in a Spanish production, from 2012 and directed by Juan Antonio Bayona, The Impossible , which deals with the story of a family that travels to Thailand to spend Christmas 2004 when it suffers in its flesh the brutality of the tsunami that devastated those lands.

It was that role that put him on the map of the world of cinema and the one that opened the doors to everything that came later. A considerable number of top-level productions that have had uneven luck but where the (until now) six films related to the Marvel Cinematic Universe shine, with special importance. Let’s see them.

All of Tom Holland’s movies, from worst to best

We won’t go any further, here you have all the movies in which Tom Holland has participated as an actor, ordered from worst to best according to the IMDb ranking . These are:

17 – Edge of Winter (2016)

Two brothers are left in the care of a father they don’t know and together they start a journey in the middle of a brutal snow storm. The boys, disoriented, will come to believe that far from protecting them, their father has become the greatest threat to their lives. A film that did not get much tour in theaters and that has remained (for now) as an anecdote in the Londoner’s biography.

IMDb Score: 5.3

16 – Chaos Walking (2021)

Doug Liman directs two young stars like Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley who travel to a planet where there is no trace of women and everyone who lives there is able to hear everyone’s thoughts. Science fiction with many doses of suspense for a film that everyone hoped would consecrate the mythical Rey from Star Wars Episode VII . The truth is that Chaos Walking fell far short of expectations.

IMDb Score: 5.7

15 – The Relic Keeper (2017)

Tom Holland signs up for a historical film, at least in setting, and that tells us the story of a group of monks who must escort a relic through a territory full of dangers and wild tribes that threaten everyone who crosses their paths . The action takes us to the Ireland of the thirteenth century.

IMDb Score: 5.8

14 – Uncharted (2022)

Without a doubt, one of the most eventful projects Tom Holland has experienced because the film he ended up starring in had gone through years of uncertainty, reboots and cancellations. Finally, the Londoner got into the skin of Nathan Drake, one of the best-known video game heroes in the world. Discreet without more.

IMDb Score: 6.4

13 – My Life Now (2014)

Tom Holland is not the absolute protagonist but he joins a more intimate story that places us in a rural English area where an American girl ends up traveling. There, she will find love and a purpose for her boring life that will make her meet the character that our favorite Peter Parker plays of hers. A romantic movie …

IMDb Score: 6.4

12 – The War of the Currents (2017)

The history of the battles between two geniuses like Nikola Tesla and Thomas Alva Edison to take control of the electricity distribution standard at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century is the excuse to experience first-hand the tricks used by some and others to ruin the enemy … while Tom Holland attended as one more interested in his role as tycoon Samuel Insull.

IMDb Score: 6.5

11 – Z, The Lost City (2016)

This film is based on the true story of the British explorer Percy Fawcett , who disappeared in the 1920s while trying to locate and explore one of the most mythical cities of Orian history, located in the Amazon. Tom Holland plays the adventurer who will show us his obsession with finding that hidden myth that legends spoke of.

IMDb Score: 6.6

10 – Cherry (2021)

Cherry is the name of a project that was announced with great fanfare as an Apple TV+ original movie directed by none other than the brothers Anthony and Joe Russo, responsible for the last two installments of Avengers ( Infinity War and Endgame ), so things looked great. Unfortunately, it was buried by the low popularity of the streaming platform, which made us miss out on the most dramatic role that Tom Holland has ever played: “a military doctor suffering from post-traumatic stress gets hooked on drugs until he acquires so much debt that he has to rob banks to pay it.”

IMDb Score: 6.6

9 – In the Heart of the Sea (2015)

Tom Holland plays Thomas Nickerson in this film that tells the story of an event that ended up inspiring the Moby Dick novel , written by Herman Melville. The action takes us to the 1920s and to the decks of an English whaler.

IMDb Score: 6.9

8 – The Devil at all hours (2020)

This Netflix original production shows us the most dramatic Tom Holland, in a story that takes us to the period between World War II and the Vietnam War, where a series of conflicting characters begin to form part of the inner circle of the young Arvin Russel , who will have to face all the threats that arise in his life and that of his family.

IMDb Score: 7.1

7 – Spider-Man Homecoming (2017)

With the Marvel Cinematic Universe running since 2008, many comic fans asked Disney for when the return of Spider-Man , now with Iron Man, Captain America, etc. And the answer was this film that marks the entrance of Peter Parker in a Phase 3 of which was one of his main attractions, and that has transformed him into the heir to Tony Stark. Glorious that Vulture by Michael Keaton.

IMDb Score: 7.4

6 – Spider-Man Far From Home (2019)

Two years later , Sony and Disney joined forces again in a film that introduces us to Mysterio, one of Peter Parker’s most characteristic villains and that entangles the plot to mix it with the events seen in Avengers Endgame . It was the first film after that colossal production that left us with the surprise that one (or two) of the original Avengers, gave up the baton of the leadership of the superheroes. And Peter, awkward as he was, was willing to take on this new role.

IMDb Score: 7.4

5 – The Impossible (2012)

As we mentioned at the beginning, Tom Holland shines in this film starring Ewan McGregor and Naomi Watts that tells us what happened to a Spanish family who spent their Christmas holidays in 2004 in Thailand, in the days of the deadly earthquake and subsequent tsunami that devastated much of the coast of the Indian Ocean. It was the springboard for the Londoner to dedicate himself professionally to cinema.

IMDb Score: 7.5

4 – Captain America Civil War (2016)

Before Spider-Man Homecoming , Marvel drove fans crazy by introducing Spider-Man in the film that tells us about the conflict between the two sides of Avengers led by Iron Man and Captain America. Peter Parker will be recruited by Tony Stark and we will be able to see him in a glorious scene at the Leipzig airport of those that make time. A great movie without any doubt.

IMDb Score: 7.8

3 – Spider-Man No Way Home (2021)

At the end of 2021 Sony and Marvel collaborated again and the result was the entry of Spider-Man into phase 4 of the UCM and also of the multiverse, which allowed the writers to recruit all the Spider-Man seen in the cinema throughout over the last 20 years. Neither more nor less than those played by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield. The result is a movie that has enchanted everyone and proof of this is the collection obtained worldwide: 1,901 million dollars… and rising?

IMDb Score: 8.3

2 – Avengers Infinity War (2018)

The two films that were originally going to be one, narrate the Infinity Wars are curiously tied in the IMDb ranking , which gives an idea that one cannot be understood without the other. In this first one we will verify the immense power of Thanos and the damage that he will cause throughout the Galaxy with his already iconic snap of the gauntlet. Spider-Man, along with Iron Man and Doctor Stranger, will team up to fight evil in the confines of the universe. The result, surely, you already know, right?

IMDb Score: 8.4

1 – Avengers Endgame (2019)

Final culmination of Phase 3 and, practically, of all the Marvel Studios movies since 2008 that returns us to Thanos as the main enemy and a universe in which our protagonists will have to travel through time to recover the infinity gems and return life to the billions of creatures sacrificed by the villain. It goes without saying that what will happen throughout its more than two hours of duration is already part of the history of cinema.

IMDb Score: 8.4
