Spider-Man: No Way Home - Every Character Ranked Worst To Best

7. Peter Parker

How much fun was it to see Tobey Maguire donning the tights once more and suiting up as Spider-Man for the first time in 14 years? Extremely fun, that's how much fun.

Much like Michael Keaton and Batman, fans have long clamoured to see Maguire back as Spider-Man at some point. Here, that return didn't disappoint.

Granted, some may have wanted more screen time for this Peter Parker, but this picture very much belonged to Tom Holland's Web-head. As such, both Maguire and Andrew Garfield were perfect in their supporting roles as the cavalry coming in to help save the day.

Clearly having been through the wars over the years, Maguire's Peter was one with a calm demeanour and with plenty of words of wisdom to offer up - plus was able to stop Holland's Parker from doing something he'd regret.
