5. 3 Best Spider-Men in MCU? Which character do you like the most?

Every time Spider-Man is released in theaters, the three Spider-Man guys, Tom Holland, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, are always put on the scale to compare their talent as well as their acting and role-playing abilities.

And of course, the highest vote must go to the young, excellent actor Tom Holland. However, that does not mean we should deny or forget the talent of the two Spiderman versions Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield.

5.1 Tom Holland – The most talented and popular Spider-Man

After the Andrew Garfield Spider-Man version was fired by Sony, the opportunity opened up for the young actor Tom Holland to return to the Marvel blockbuster series to continue accompanying the Avengers team. The MCU’s requirement at this time was to find an actor who could take on the role of a new Spider-Man, with a younger, more dynamic and mischievous personality to match the time when he was in high school.

After beating out more than 1,500 candidates, Tom Holland landed the role of Spider-Man. Starting from Captain America: Civil War and until the latest Homecoming, he quickly asserted his talent with excellent acting.

Since taking on the role of Spider-Man – Peter Parker and becoming an indispensable character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), this actor has been working tirelessly to reap sweet results and receive warm reception from the audience and professional council.

Many people are apprehensive when Tom Holland takes on the role of Spider-Man in the MCU.

When watching Spider-Man Peter Parker played by Tom Holland, both experts and audiences exclaimed that this role was born for him, because he accurately portrayed the inner self and personality of Spider-Man.

Tom Holland shines in Spiderman

In 2016, the actor appeared in the blockbuster Captain America: Civil War and although he only appeared in a supporting role as Iron Man’s apprentice, this role helped him receive countless compliments because he showed his cunning, witty personality and super acrobatic scenes, true to the nature of Spider-Man.

Tom Holland’s appearance in Spider-Man

As soon as Tom Holland was cast as Spiderman, there were many concerns, doubts, and even opposition to this version of Spiderman because they thought he was still quite young and did not have enough acting experience to take on this role.

However, the suspicion is also understandable because at that time, Tom Holland was actually quite “poor” in terms of assets and only had supporting roles in a few films such as The Impossible, How do I live, Locke (voice), Wolf Hall.

Before joining Spider-Man, Tom Holland only received supporting roles in a few TV series.

However, he truly proved his acting talent when the 2017 movie Spider-Man: Homecoming brought Spider-Man back to its most original form.

Since joining the MCU, the young Spider-Man has also been favored with two blockbuster solo films, Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) and Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019). In Spider-Man: Far From Home alone, viewers were surprised by the epic battles, combined with top-notch Hollywood cinematography.

In 2018 – 2019, Tom Holland continued to appear in the superhero movies Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame with other superheroes in the Avengers team to fight against Thanos.

In 2021, the actor returned with the highly anticipated blockbuster Spider-Man: No Way Home, continuing the unfinished story after Peter Parker and his classmate MJ (played by Zendaya) dated and fell in love.

5.2 Tobey Maguire – The silly and slightly “silly” spider

In 2002, Spider-Man was released and made actor Tobey Maguire famous all over the world. According to many comments, among the 3 actors who played Spider-Man, Tobey Maguire was not highly regarded for his appearance. His face was not handsome, a bit silly and a bit “silly”. However, because of that, many people think that Tobey Maguire’s face is most suitable for the original comic.

It is Tobey Maguire’s appearance that makes him loved by the audience. In the past, North American audiences quite loved this version of Spider-Man. According to the audience on Rotten Tomatoes – a website that uses the audience’s score as a measure of the quality of a movie, Tobey’s Spider-Man 2002 achieved a record score of up to 89%.

A number that many actors at that time aspired to have. However, unfortunately, after the third film was released in 2007 and was not successful, Sony decided to terminate the contract with the actor.

5.3 Andrew Garfield – The most handsome Spider-Man

After Tobey terminated his contract, Sony officially called Andrew Garfield to continue playing the sequels of Spider-Man: The Amazing Spider-man 1 (2012) and The Amazing Spider-man 2 (2014).

Andrew Garfield is considered to have a bright, handsome face and a tall, big, muscular body. However, despite his attractive appearance, Andrew Garfield’s acting is not as successful as his predecessor.

Andrew Garfield has not met expectations when taking on the role of Spider-Man

His roles have made Spider-Man more mature, gentler and also bland, far from the original in the comics. The bad script was predicted and it certainly happened when two scripts were considered “young” like The Amazing Spider-man 1 (2012) and The Amazing Spider-man 2 (2014) caused the film’s revenue to drop sharply compared to the previous 3 parts.

There are many rumors that the reason Andrew Garfield was fired was because Sony president Kaz Hirai was unhappy when he did not attend a Sony event in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) in the summer of 2014, causing the series to end abruptly and opening the way for Spidey’s “return” once again.

However, this is just side information and has no accuracy level. Anyway, actor Andrew Garfield has not had the chance to play Spider-Man, and this also opens up a new horizon for Tom Holland.

Andrew Spider-Man didn’t last long in the role.

No matter which character it is, it is difficult to judge who is the best because each actor is carefully selected and brings different emotions and highlights to the character. We can only say which version of Spiderman we like better. And you, which version do you like the most?
