Tobey Maguire is said to be earning a whopping $50 million for the next two films in the SPIDER-MAN franchise. The films, numbers 4 and 5 in the movie series based on the popular comic-book hero, will also see Maguire allocated 'Father Time', which basically gets him early mornings and evenings off, to spend time with his 22-month-old daughter.

According to Times Online, we'll learn in the next few days as to whether Kirsten Dunst will return to the role of Mary-Jane Watson.

SPIDER-MAN 4 and SPIDER-MAN 5 will be shot back-to-back. The first three film's director Sam Raimi is also expected to return to helm the upcoming movies, set up at Hollywood studio Sony.
