Holland made his debut as an iconic hero in 2015 Captain America: Civil War. Since then, the star has played the character in 5 consecutive films, including 3 solo films.

In 2012, Sony rebooted their Spider-Man franchise with a younger, new take on their iconic hero after the Sam Raimi trilogy reshaped superhero movies in the 2000s with The Amazing Spider-Man. Starring Garfield as high school hero Peter Parker, Marc Webb’s take on the hero was a darker, more grounded approach with ambitions to launch a new cinematic universe.

If someone had told me after my second movie that I was done and this other kid took over, I would have been heartbroken. So looking back, I wish I had the chance to make it up to him, but this movie was our chance. Not only was it an opportunity for him to make peace with the character and the studio, but it was also an opportunity for me and him to have this moment where we realize we can share this. The look on his face when he rescues Zendaya [MJ] is completely sincere, and I’m really proud of him.”
