Tobey Maguire once said Peter Parker is not a typical action hero
When the Brothers actor first appeared on the big screen as the Marvel superhero, he nailed the character. After Spider-Man 3, which was released in the year 2007, the actor came back to the character in 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home. During an interview, while talking about his interesting character Peter Parker, Maguire said,
“I know that some people think I’m not exciting enough or volatile enough for this kind of role, but I think that kind of criticism is absolutely off-base. Peter Parker is not a typical action hero. He’s probably the most down-to-earth, most carefully drawn, and least plastic of comic book figures. For me, it’s a role that I knew that I could pull off without disappointing people. And once people see the movie, I think they’ll come to the same conclusion. “
People remember him as Spider-Man and want to see him play the famed superhero character again. Even though Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland did an excellent job in their Spider-Man series, the rumors of the 48-year-old actor’s return have delighted fans.
