It’s so easy, in fact, that I wondered: Did the filmmakers ever consider casting Tobey Maguire as the voice of the older Peter Parker?
We’ll have more from our interview with the directors of Into the Spider-Verse next week; the film opens on December 14.
I loved the older Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Maybe it’s because this Peter Parker is exactly my age, and it’s nice to have a Spidey who’s life hasn’t worked out quite as he envisioned as he’s grown older and chubbier.
Maguire is 43, the perfect age to play Mid-Life Crisis Spidey and, of course, still identified throughout the world with the role.
