Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield, and the OG Spider-Man Tobey Maguire in one movie? Yes, please! Fans of the Marvel movie were utterly convinced that we’d see three Peter Parkers in Spider-Man: No Way Home and they were right!

Garfield and Maguire were re-introduced into the franchise in a way that was really special for fans of their Spider-Man films. The actors, alongside Holland, recently reunited for an interview with Deadline, where they discussed the emotional aspects of sharing the screen. Holland noted that he wasn’t sure if he would be playing Spider-Man in future films, so he was overwhelmed by the potential of saying goodbye as well as the “celebration of three generations of cinema.”

He continued, “We would be getting into these scenes that were incredibly emotional. They’re very taxing, and I was so happy to be there, that I had to go at it a different way and kind of go, ‘Wow, look at my life . . . I’m working with Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield and we’re telling this story.’ . . . I was happy to kind of really push myself and to make this film more emotional than superhero films have been in the past.”

Maguire added that he was “grateful every day” for the “rich experience” of working with the other two actors. “It was just so rich, emotional. I’m not sitting there conceptually thinking about that all the time, but I would have moments where that kind of stuff would hit me . . . It was pretty wild to witness the immensity of all of this history coming together.”

And naturally, their comeback wouldn’t have been as epic had they not all agreed to work on it together. Garfield admitted, “I was just waiting to see if Tobey was going to do it, and if Tobey was going to do it, then I was like, ‘Well, I have no choice,’ you know?” He added, “Getting three Spider-Men together could go one of two ways, and I think it’s a testament to these guys that it went the way that it went, which was a brotherhood, which is just beautiful.”
