Regarding Spider-Man in cinema, fans have many great options to call their favorites. You can choose Tobey Maguire from the Sam Raimi trilogy, Andrew Garfield from the Amazing films, or Shameik Moore (Miles Morales) and Hailee Steinfeld (Gwen Stacy) from the Spider-Verse movies.
At the moment, the most beloved Peter Parker actor is Tom Holland. After a breakthrough performance as the titular character in Billy Elliot the Musical on the West End, Holland leaped into the mainstream for his role in the Marvel Studios’ interpretation of Spider-Man, starring in Captain America: Civil War (2016), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Avengers: Endgame (2019), and three Spider-Man films: Homecoming (2017), Far From Home (2019), and No Way Home (2021).

Obviously, Holland will be fine. He earns plenty of money in residuals for his performances in the MCU. However, it can still be scary not knowing what is coming down the line.
Fortunately, the Onward (2020) actor is incredibly talented, likable, and hardworking. It will only be a matter of time before he finds his next project. Hopefully, it is something that takes advantage of his musical theater skills. And if Marvel Studios is smart, it will only be a matter of time before they bring him back as everyone’s favorite Wall-Crawler.
