Spider-Man: Tobey Maguire vs Tom Holland

Debate still rages across the corners of fandom — which cinematic Spider-Man is the superior Spidey? If you don’t know already that all three 21st-century Spider-Men come together in the MCU’s HOMECOMING trilogy finale, we’ve got news for you, buddy — and we’d also like you to tell us how much rent you’re paying for that rock you’ve been hiding under.

While Andrew Garfield’s AMAZING SPIDER-MAN has been experiencing a resurgence in fan affection since No Way Home, his movies arguably didn’t fare well critically or financially. It’s a more evenly-matched battle to decide the supreme Spider-Man when simply considering the original on-screen Peter Parker — as played by TOBEY MAGUIRE — and the incumbent TOM HOLLAND, the wall-crawling emissary of the juggernaut that is the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Fear not, gentle listeners, as we here at JoBlo will decide once and for all who is the best live-action Spider-Man. So suit up as we prepare a web-slingin’ slugfest between Maguire and Holland. You know what it’s time for: FACE OFF!

This episode of Face Off is written by Daniel Woburn, narrated by Shawn Knippelberg, and edited by Matthew Hacunda. Let us know in the comments which Spider-Man you prefer – Tobey Maguire or Tom Holland!
