“Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man” is a return to the classic Spider-Man stories seen prior to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Since Spider-Man’s addition to the MCU, fans have been divided on the handling of his character, as the MCU wedged him between the Avengers and the multiverse. “Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man” impressed fans by addressing their issues with the MCU’s Spider-Man story and reworking it to create a new start for the young hero which is not part of the MCU. 

“Spider-Man: No Way Home,” the latest in a long line of films featuring the friendly neighborhood hero, is a movie 19 years in the making and well worth the wait.

Spider-Man is in a unique position in Hollywood. As a character, he has had four different actors, writers, directors and distinct styles depict him since the turn of the century – and that’s just for movie versions of Peter Parker.
