Spider-Man is a surprisingly vast franchise. The wall-crawler has 10 solo movies led by four Spider-Men and three crossover appearances in just over 20 years of starring on the big screen. The 10 films exist within the same multiverse, so sorting things out might challenge a new viewer. Here is our guide through the Spider-Verse as we take you through each film step-by-step.
There will be some mild spoilers since this list includes sequels, so keep that in mind when reading. However, there won’t be anything too significant that hasn’t been revealing the film’s trailers and marketing.

Spider-Man
Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man, from 2002’s ‘Spider-Man’.
The firstSpider-Manfilm ever put to screen is the perfect starting point. DirectorSam Raimi’sSpider-Man(2002)delivers an incredible origin story for Peter Parker as he learns the responsibility of being a superhero and using his gifts for good. In an era where comic book movies constantly tried to avoid their campy roots,Spider-Mandoubled down and embraced them—having him in his bright red and blue spandex, fighting against a villain as outrageous as the Green Goblin. you may say that this film is what defines the modern superhero blockbuster.
The film starsTobey Maguireas the Spectacular Spider-Man, alongsideWillem Defoe(Norman Osborne),Kirsten Dunst(Mary Jane Watson),James Franco(Harry Osborne),J.K. Simmons(J. Jonah Jamison),Rosemary Harris(Aunt May), andCliff Robertson(Uncle Ben).

Spider-Man 2
The sequel toSpider-Manis none other thanSpider-Man 2. This film takes us back into the life of Maguire’s Peter Parker, and we see how things have changed since the previous film. He’s now in college, has his own apartment, and meets one of his idols,Otto Octavius, played byAlfred Molina.
Spider-Man 2builds on what made the first film work so well. The characters are great, the story is heartwarming, and Doc Ock’s robotic arms look incredible today. It’s almost a perfect film because it’s a story about Peter Parker, and that human element will always be the most interesting part of Spider-Man.
Spider-Man 3
The final film in Sam Raimi’sSpider-Mantrilogy isSpider-Man 3. Here, Peter’s arc is coming to a close. Everything seems to be going his way, but things start to take a turn after coming in contact with an alien symbiote. Peter needs to decide who Spider-Man is supposed to be and how to honor the teachings he learned from Aunt May and Uncle Ben.
This film sees the web-swinger battle the New Goblin, Sandman (Thomas Haden Church), and Venom (Topher Grace). While primarily considered the weakest of the three,Spider-Man 3still has a few moments where the characters shine,becoming a cult classic.
The Amazing Spider-Man
After theSpider-Mantrilogy concluded in 2007, Sony Pictures decided to reboot the franchise. Leading toMarc Webb’sThe Amazing Spider-Man. Here, we once again see Peter’s origin story, but with a few modern twists. He grapples with losing his parents, Uncle Ben, and now has to deal with his new spider powers.
Andrew Garfieldis now the lead as the amazing Spider-Man. Joining him areEmma Stone(Gwen Stacy),Rhys Ifans(Dr. Connors),Denis Leary(Capt. Stacy),Sally Field(Aunt May), andMartin Sheen(Uncle Ben).
The Amazing Spider-Man 2
InThe Amazing Spider-Man 2,Peter Parker (Garfield) and Gwen Stacy (Stone) graduate High School and prepare for college. LikeSpider-Man 3before, we’re facing off against three new bad guys, and it’s a lot to juggle. Electro (Jamie Foxx), Rhino (Paul Giamatti), and the Goblin (Dane DeHaan).The Amazing Spider-Man 2has a lot of different storylines to juggle,but Garfield and Stone shine as the two leads. Their chemistry is undeniable.

This film takes us back to school in aJohn Hughes-esque coming-of-age flick. The film manages to skip the origin story and get into the fun stuff. Parker must navigate life as a high schooler and a superhero. Holland is also a breath of fresh air since his take on Parker seems more immature than the previous two actors. Holland’s costars includeRobert Downey Jr.(Iron Man),Marisa Tomei(May Parker),Zendaya(Michelle Jones),Jacob Batalon(Ned Leeds),Laura Harrier(Liz Allen),Michael Keaton(Adrian Toomes), andJon Favreau(Happy Hogan).
Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse
We interrupt the Holland trilogy with arguably the best superhero movie ever made.Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verseis an animated film starring Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) as he gains spider powers and faces off against a multiversal threat. Becoming a superhero isn’t easy, but luckily, Miles has a perfect mentor to help him along the way, Peter B. Parker (Jake Johnson), a middle-aged multiversal variant of Spider-Man.
Into The Spider-Verseis everything you’d ever want to see. An incredible coming-of-age story that focuses on all aspects of Miles’ life, not just the superhuman regarding his newly found power, but also his human sides, such as his relationship with his friends, parents, and uncle. The film encapsulates everything we love about Spider-Man.
Miles and Peter aren’t alone! Here are Moore’s and Johnson’s co-stars:Hailee Steinfeld(Gwen Stacy),Nicolas Cage(Spider-Man Noir),John Mulaney(Spider-Ham),Kemiko Glen(Peni Parker),Mahershala Ali(Uncle Aaron),Brian Tyree Henry(Jefferey Davis),Luna Vélez(Rio Morales)Chris Pine(Spider-Man),Kathryn Hahn(Doc Ock),Zoë Kravitz(Mary Jane Watson), andLiev Schreiber(Wilson Fisk).
