‘Spiderman- Brand New Day’ cast salaries: a full breakdown of leads and supporting roles
The Spider-Man: Brand New Day cast’s payday pecking order isn’t what you’d expect, and the biggest winner may not be who you think.

Day players and background
Dozens of working actors fill out the film’s New York — a mix of day players, stunt pros and featured extras who generally earn union-scale rates. Smaller speaking turns, including Olivia Booth-Ford, Taryn Marie Butler, Johnny Myers and stunt performer Billy Clements, are estimated at the higher end of day-player pay, commonly cited in the $1,100–$3,000 range depending on days and bumps.
Ambient faces onscreen — like Camila López, Michael Magnet, Daisy Sequerra and Elvis Carlos — are estimated to have worked at scale day payments between $1,100 and $8,000 across their time on set. For performers billed as The Inhabited along with uncredited ambient roles, total payroll is estimated at $150,000–$400,000.
- Ian Chance — Manhattan Businessman: standard background daily scale, estimated $200–$1,100/day
- Nigel Finnissy — Manhattan Businessman: standard background daily scale, estimated $200–$1,100/day
- Simon Christo — Pedestrian: standard background daily scale, estimated $200–$1,100/day

Taken together, the talent spend stretches from roughly $1 million up to $20 million for top-billed players, down to daily scale for atmospheric roles — the kind of payroll spread that helps power a mega-budget superhero hit of this size.
