“Captain America: Civil War” has been crushing it at the box office and the film is a big hit with fans and critics alike. One of the things people can’t seem to stop talking about when it comes to “Civil War” is Tom Holland’s Spider-Man. Holland made his debut as the wall crawler in the film and his performance has received praise from just about everyone who has seen the film so far.
Tom Holland’s Spider-Man of course is the first Spider-Man to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but he’s not the first Spider-Man to appear in a major motion picture. Tobey Maguire has the most appearances as Spider-Man on the big screen so far as he’s played the character in three separate films.
Recently a viral video clip has been making the rounds on the Internet and it shows Tobey Maguire watching footage of Tom Holland’s Spider-Man before going home and reminiscing about his time as the Old Web-Head. The clip reached Maguire himself and he seemed to get a kick out of it as he posted it on his Instagram page along with a positive message for Tom Holland.
“Haha seriously, who made this? @tomholland2013 good job! You are great as Spider-Man. Keep it up!”
It’s safe to say that Tobey Maguire is to Spider-Man what Michael Keaton is to Batman. For many people Tobey will be the face that they associate with Spider-Man and Peter Parker on the big screen for years to come. Tobey certainly made his mark on the role and it’s nice to see him show support for Tom Holland.
Tom Holland’s Spider-Man will be returning to the big screen next summer in “Spider-Man: Homecoming” which opens July 6, 2017.
