Sam Raimi Wouldn't Direct A Spider-Man Movie Without Tobey Maguire
Sam Raimi says he would not direct a Spider-Man film unless it starred Tobey Maguire. Before the MCU launched its first phase with Iron Man in 2008, Raimi helped establish the superhero genre with his work on the Spider-man trilogy for Sony. Maguire made his debut as the web-slinging titular character in 2002's Spider-man, followed by Spider-man 2 in 2004 and Spider-man 3 in 2007. A Spider-Man 4 was in development until disagreements between Raimi and Sony eventually ended in the film's cancellation. After his Spider-Man trilogy concluded, Raimi left the superhero genre until 2020, when Marvel announced that he would replace Scott Derrickson to direct Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
