Spider-Man Video Celebrates Film's 20th Anniversary
A new Spider-Man video celebrates the 20th anniversary of Sam Raimi's original film. Released in 2002, Raimi's Spider-Man introduces audiences to Tobey Maguire's take on Peter Parker and chronicles the character's journey to becoming Spider-Man. The film remains one of the most formative and influential superhero movies of all time and was a smash hit at the box office, earning over $825 million worldwide.
Raimi and Maguire would go on to reteam for two additional films, the beloved Spider-Man 2 in 2004 and the divisive Spider-Man 3 in 2007. In addition to Maguire's Peter, Spider-Man introduced audiences to Kirsten Dunst's MJ, James Franco's Harry Osborn, and Willem Dafoe as Green Goblin, the film's villain. Both Maguire and Dafoe recently returned to their respective roles in Spider-Man: No Way Home this past December. Both characters' returns were highly praised by fans, with many still considering Maguire to be the best Spider-Man and Dafoe's Green Goblin to be one of the franchise's best villains.
