Marvel has provided fans with many iterations of Spider-Man over the past 20 years, with Tom Holland portraying the character most recently. And Spidey from the Marvel Cinematic Universe is probably here to stay. Many think he might cross paths with the character’s earlier forms from Spider-Man: No Way Home. In fact, there have been numerous occasions when speculations about former Spider-Man actors Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield appearing have circulated.
Fans may be curious to see how these three will appear on screen together even though their involvement hasn’t been confirmed. Who among the Spider-Man actors is the tallest?
How tall is each ‘Spider-Man’ actor, and who is the tallest?

Holland isn’t one of the MCU stars who stand over six feet tall, despite the majority of them. Holland is a few inches shorter than his Spider-Man: No Way Home co-stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Alfred Molina, standing at five-foot-seven, according to Celebrity Heights.
Holland and Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man are about the same height. According to Celebrity Heights, 46-year-old Maguire is little over five feet seven inches but not quite five feet eight. But the actor seemed to round up, allegedly informing the Today Show hosts that he is five-foot-eight.
Last but not least, Garfield is the tallest of the three Spider-Man actors at five feet ten inches. He is actually a tiny bit taller than that, according to Celebrity Heights, making him slightly taller than the others. Overall, there isn’t much of a height gap between the three; certainly nothing that would be noticeable on screen.
Andrew Garfield played Peter Parker in ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ movies
Those who have seen every Spider-Man film will remember Garfield from The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) and its follow-up in 2014. Even while Garfield’s Peter Parker wasn’t a member of the MCU, he did offer a more contemporary interpretation of the character than Maguire’s Maguire offered in the early 2000s.
But unlike Maguire’s trilogy, Garfield’s Amazing Spider-Man movies weren’t as popular, which finally prompted Sony to revamp the show once more, with Holland as Peter. Moviegoers responded favourably enough to the original Amazing Spider-Man, but the disappointing The Amazing Spider-Man 2 earned mixed reviews and made $709 million less than its predecessor at the box office.
Although he left his job as Spider-Man earlier than anticipated, the actor kept going after significant Hollywood roles. Garfield has acted in movies like Hacksaw Ridge and The Eyes of Tammy Faye since The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
Will Tom Holland, Tobey Maguire, and Andrew Garfield all appear in ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’?
Although these rumours have not yet been proven, many fans think that Garfield and Maguire may appear alongside Tom Holland‘s Spider-Man in the next Spider-Man: No Way Home. While getting all three of them together on screen would be an incredible and audacious move on the part of Marvel Studios, there is no assurance that it will ever happen.
In truth, Garfield has often refuted the rumours, most recently refuting claims that he was working with Maguire. He was questioned on a viral photo on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
He stated, “I heard about it. “I saw it, too. It’s a Photoshop, too.
Of course, the stars are unlikely to reveal that Maguire and Garfield are included in the next sequel. More cameos are undoubtedly possible with Alfred Molina repeating his part as Doctor Octopus and Jamie Foxx resuming his role as Electro. Unfortunately, until Spider-Man: No Way Home is released, fans won’t know if the rumours are accurate.
On December 17, 2021, Spider-Man: No Way Home opens in theatres.
