12 Worst Casting Decisions In Spider-Man Movies
3. Embeth Davidtz As Mary Parker (Amazing Spider-Man)
If you haven't sat through Amazing Spider-Man or its sequel relatively, it's easy to forget that Peter's birth parents were even in the film, such is their screen presence.
Embeth Davidtz, who gives a phoned-in performance as Mary Parker, is the worst offender of the two, but once again, the actress isn't entirely at fault.

It's easy to see why Sam Raimi chose to leave the subject of Peter's parentage alone.
