“I’ve met some folks that are… similar to his character," Kravitz told IGN in January. "I grew up in the Bahamas as well as New York City, and there were guys who had [Bawma’s] vibe and were doing similar things in the islands. He’s an interesting guy. We’re not quite sure how he’s going to turn.”

“We wanted more than just a one-sided villain, like we wanted to have some kind of charisma," added 007 First Light Director Hakan Abrak. "He has more sides to him that could maybe turn out surprising in the story. You’ll need to wait to see that until the game comes out."

007 First Light will be released on May 27, 2026.

AEW’s Kenny Omega Brings Alex to Life for Street Fighter 6

We had the chance to invite All Elite Wrestling superstar Kenny Omega to IGN Fan Fest to talk about his upcoming Street Fighter 6 character, Alex. Omega provided motion capture for the character and fans will be able to try him out on March 17. He also shared a wild story about how his involvement in Street Fighter 6 came about.

"When the news broke and they told me, we signed the NDAs and we know who the characters are and Alex will, in fact, be one of them. And they said, for you being such a good sport, it'd be cool if we, you know, put a move of yours in, maybe one or two or a taunt or something," Omega told IGN.

"I had said, 'wow, that would be great. I just don't know when I could fit that into my schedule to do the mocap for it.' And they'd said, 'oh, wait, you do the mocap for it?' I said, 'yeah, is that what you were talking about or no?' They said, 'oh my, if you would do the mocap for it, that would be awesome.' And so a misunderstanding on my part is what led to me actually going to the studio and doing a slew of mocap for the character. If there was ever a better time to be stupid, that was one of them, because it worked out in my favor completely to not understand what they were talking about at that moment. So because of that one discussion, I got invited back to the next year's Tokyo Game Show. And then before doing the game show, I stopped over at Osaka, where they do the mocap for Capcom. And we hammered it out in one day. It was a grueling 10 or 11 hour shoot. I remember losing like eight or nine pounds of water weight, but it was so worth it and so fun."

Developing...

Spider-Man is one of the most iconic superheroes of all time, but he didn’t swing onto the big screen until director Sam Raimi helped bring 2002’s Spider-Man to life. Since then, Spider-Man has become one of the most profitable superheroes, with pretty much every film adaptation taking the box office by storm.

While it may be easy to watch the films in release order, there are those of us who love watching stories in chronological order to experience these stories in a whole new way. Luckily, the release order and chronological order of the Spider-Man movies and spin-offs are the exact same, so it really just comes down to how you want to watch all the films that tell the complete story of the Spider-Verse (pun intended!).

Below, you can find a mostly spoiler-free look at how to watch all the Spider-Man movies and their spin-offs in chronological order. You'll also see a few lists on Spider-Man movies in release order or with a particular actor. And if you want to just find out how to watch the Spider-Man spin-offs like Venom and Kraven and the like, check out Sony's Spider-Man Universe in Chronological Order.

How Many Spider-Man Movies Are There?

While the wider Spider-Man Universe includes over a dozen movies, there are ten total films led by Spider-Man himself. Eight of those movies are live-action — three led by Tobey Maguire, two by Andrew Garfield, and three by Tom Holland — and two are animated, featuring a variety of Spideys.

For a full list of how to stream all of the films, take a look at our guide on where to watch the Spider-Man movies in 2026.

Spider-Man Movies in Chronological Order

1. Spider-Man (2002)

2002’s Spider-Man is the one that brought Peter Parker into the world of live-action on the big screen. Starring Tobey Maguire as everyone’s friendly neighborhood Spider-Man and Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane, this film gave us many memorable moments, including the upside-down kiss that may still be one of the most iconic kisses of all time.

Oh, and it features Willem Dafoe and his fantastic first performance as Harry Osborne/Green Goblin and J.K. Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson, roles they would both reprise in future films beyond the Maguire-era.

Read our review of Spider-Man.

2. Spider-Man 2 (2004)

Tobey Maguire’s journey as Spider-Man continues in 2004’s Spider-Man 2, and this time he must face off against Alfred Molina’s Doctor Otto Octavius when a tragic lab accident turns the Doctor into a supervillain. This second film in the Maguire era took place two years after the first and gave us the legendary scene featuring Spider-Man saving a runaway train with nothing but his spider-strength and web-slinging prowess.

Read our review of Spider-Man 2.

3. Spider-Man 3 (2007)

Spider-Man 3 is the last film of Sam Raimi’s trilogy and the final entry starring Tobey Maguire as the titular hero. Whereas the first two films focused on one main villain, this third entry packed three baddies into its runtime, including Sandman (Thomas Haden Church), Venom (Topher Grace), and a new Green Goblin (James Franco). This movie, which takes place about a year after Spider-Man 2, is probably the most polarizing of the first three films, but it did give us Spider-Man’s Black Suit and that must give it some points, right?!

Read our review of Spider-Man 3.

4. The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)

2012’s The Amazing Spider-Man saw Marc Webb swing into the director’s chair, and was the first to star Andrew Garfield as the web-slinging hero opposite Emma Stone’s Gwen Stacy. The Amazing Spider-Man is another take on Spidey’s origin story and features some history about Peter’s parents. The big bad in this movie is Rhys Ifans’ Lizard, a mutated scientist who once worked with Peter’s father.

Read our review of The Amazing Spider-Man.

5. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was the second and last film in the Garfield era and, much like the last film in the original Spider-Man trilogy, it featured a trio of villains. like. Taking place two years after the original, this sequel introduced Jamie Foxx’s Electro, Paul Giamatti’s Rhino, and Dane DeHaan’s Green Goblin, and was supposed to set up future entries in the franchise featuring Venom and the Sinister Six. Unfortunately, the film’s mixed review and lower box office performance contributed to all of those plans being scrapped.

Read our review of The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

6. Captain America: Civil War (2016)

While Captain America: Civil War is obviously not a Spider-Man movie, it did introduce the world to Tom Holland’s version of Spider-Man. Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) recruits Holland’s Peter Parker after he has already become Spider-Man, and we get to see him facing off against or teaming up with many of the MCU’s greatest heroes.

Read our review of Captain America: Civil War.

7. Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

Spider-Man: Homecoming, Tom Holland’s first solo film as Spider-Man, arrived in 2017 with Jon Watts at the helm. It takes place after the events of Captain America: Civil War, and tells the story of Peter Parker handling the twin challenges of high school and proving to Tony Stark that he’s ready to join the Avengers. Despite that, he still takes it upon himself to improve his skills and stop crimes as Spider-Man alongside hanging out with his friends MJ (Zendaya) and Ned (Jacob Batalon). Homecoming also introduces us to Michael Keaton’s Adrian Toomes/Vulture, a villain who will appear again down the line.

Read our review of Spider-Man: Homecoming.

8. Venom (2018)

While there is no Spider-Man in 2018’s Venom, Tom Hardy’s version of the iconic Spidey villain does have a role to play in Holland’s Spider-Man story as future films will see their paths almost cross. It remains to be seen if Holland’s Spider-Man will ever actually run into Hardy’s Venom, but this character will undoubtedly have an important part to play in the future of the web-slinger, one way or another.

Read our review of Venom.

9. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is another Spider-Man story separate from the mainline films, but it is one well worth a watch. The story centers around Shameik Moore’s Miles Morales, but Spider-People from many different multiverses quickly enter the picture and build a cast of characters, including Hailee Steinfeld’s Spider-Gwen, Jake Johnson’s Peter B. Parker, John Mulaney’s Spider-Ham, Nicolas Cage’s Spider-Man Noir, and more.

Read our review of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

10. Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

Avengers: Infinity War features a large cast of the MCU’s greatest heroes, and Tom Holland’s Spider-Man is one of them. He plays an important role in Infinity War and his growing friendship with Tony Stark is one of the highlights.

Read our review of Avengers: Infinity War.

11. Avengers: Endgame (2019)

While certain plot reasons keep Tom Holland’s Spider-Man out of Avengers: Endgame for much of the movie, he still makes his presence felt in key moments of this film’s story. Also, it is the culmination of 21 MCU films before it and deserves a spot on the watch list.

Read our review of Avengers: Endgame.

12. Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019)

Taking place after the events of Avengers: Endgame and dealing with much of what happened in that film, Spider-Man: Far From Home begins in New York City before taking Holland’s Peter Parker to Europe for a school trip. He wants to take a trip undisturbed from the world of superheroes, but the universe has other plans for him. Throughout Far From Home, Holland crosses paths with Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), Maria Hill (Cobie Smulders), and Quentin Beck (Jake Gyllenhaal), who claims to be a hero from a different universe. Make sure to stick around for the post-credits scene here!

Read our review of Spider-Man: Far From Home.

13. Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021)

Much like the first Venom film, Venom: Let There Be Carnage is very much adjacent to the Spider-Man films rather than directly tied in. However, this film builds up the world of Tom Hardy’s Venom, and includes a post-credits scene that brings these two worlds closer together than ever.

Read our review of Venom: Let There Be Carnage.

14. Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

Spider-Man: No Way Home picks up right after the post-credits of Spider-Man: Far From Home and is the most recent mainline Spider-Man film to be released. After Peter and his friends’ lives are turned upside down, he goes to Doctor Strange and asks him to make things right by making everyone forget that Peter Parker is Spider-Man.

However, things go awry and the multiverse opens up, bringing many familiar faces from previous films into the MCU. No Way Home is as much the next chapter in Holland’s story as it is a continuation of the Maguire and Garfield eras, and the fan service is just so wonderful, especially if you have seen the previous films.

Read our review of Spider-Man: No Way Home.

15. Morbius (2022)

Morbius, much like Venom, has very little in the way of Spider-Man specifically, but it helps build out the wider universe. We know Morbius takes place in the same universe as Venom as there are certain nods like a reference to the events “in San Francisco,” but the connection to Spider-Man is a bit more unknown. Morbius is a Spider-Man villain, and the film also sees the return of Michael Keaton’s Vulture, who looks to have a bigger role to play in the future of Spider-Man, hinting that Morbius could take place in the MCU or Sony or even a bit of both.

Read our review of Morbius.

16. Spider-Man: Across the Spiderverse (2023)

Across the Spider-Verse is another animated film that seemingly sits outside of the MCU. That being said, it dives deep into the multiverse and could eventually be pulled into the rest of the Spider-Man universe similar to how the other films were brought into the fold with No-Way Home. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is a direct sequel to Into the Spider-Verse, taking place about a year after the last film ended.

The film is largely centered around Miles Morales getting pulled further into the multiverse to join Gwen Stacy and a team of Spider-People to take on a powerful new threat.

Read our review of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

17. Madame Web (2024)

While the Spider-Man spin-off Madame Web is connected to our favorite web-slinging hero, the events of the film don't feature him. Sure, there may be some spoilery links we won't ruin here, but this is a mostly standalone story in the Spidey-verse that you can watch at any time.

This film stars Dakota Johnson as Cassandra Webb and tells her origin story. We follow her as a paramedic in Manhattan who begins to develop powers to see the future and and tries to come to grips with trying to change what's to come. She is joined by Sydney Sweeney, Isabela Merced, and Celeste O'Connor, who are all "bound for powerful destinies... if they can all survive a deadly present."

Read our review of Madame Web.

18. Venom: The Last Dance (2024)

Tom Hardy had his last go-round as Eddie Brock, as well as Venom, in 2024's Venom: The Last Dance. Our review said "Venom: The Last Dance trips over its own tendrils and lets a boring, generic plot, and bad action distract from the surprisingly resilient central relationship between Eddie Brock and his symbiote bestie."

Read our review of Venom: The Last Dance.

19. Kraven the Hunter

The Aaron Taylor-Johnson-starring Kraven the Hunter didn't fare well with critics, and appears to be the last live-action movie for now in the Sony/Marvel universe. And just think, none of these guys ever even got to meet Spider-Man!

Read our review of Kraven the Hunter.

Upcoming Spider-Man Movies

Following the release of Kraven the Hunter, Sony's Spider-Man Universe appears to be on hold, at least in terms of live-action movies not starring Tom Holland as Spidey. In fact, I think most folks assumed the Sony Spider-verse was dead. However, Sony has recently confirmed they're planning a full reboot of "their side" of the Spidey franchise. No word on what exactly that will entail, but thankfully we have some confirmed Spider-Man movies coming our way.

Beyond the Spider-Verse

The third Spider-Verse movie, Beyond the Spiderverse, is in development. While originally slated to release in 2024, we got official confirmation at CinemaCon that the new release date is June 4, 2027.

Nic Cage will also be continuing in his Spider-Verse role as Spider Man Noir for a live action Amazon series from producers Phil Lord, Chris Miller, and Orien Uziel.

MCU Spider-Man

Tom Holland's Spider-Man will continue in the MCU with Spider-Man: Brand New Day. It's scheduled to release on July 31, 2026, with Destin Daniel Cretton (Shang-Chi) on board as director. Sadie Sink (Stranger Things) recently joined the cast; she'll reportedly play either X-Men character Jean Grey or Mary Jane Watson. Jon Bernthal will also be reprising his role as the Punisher.

Outside of those two movies, other updates include Kevin Feige confirming Miles Morales won't appear in live-action in the MCU. We've also gotten exclusive reveals of the upcoming Spider-Man Magic: The Gathering expansion. For more info, check out our full list of upcoming Spider-Man movies and shows.

When I talk to people about Disney Parks, I always tell them the true Disney Magic isn't found in the attractions, fireworks, or shows, but in the incredible Cast Members (aka employees) who bring them all to life. This is why I was so excited and honored to be invited to the Cast Member-exclusive event at Walt Disney World known as Goofy's Mystery Tour, which is a night filled with trivia, puzzles, challenges, camaraderie, and so much more that celebrates the amazing people who have dedicated their lives to making sure every guest has a dream-come-true vacation.

This after-hours event at Animal Kingdom has been running at Walt Disney World for over 30 years and was inspired by a similar one at Disneyland known as Minnie's Moonlit Madness. During this fun-filled evening that always takes on a special theme - this year's was Goofy's Mystiki Tour - 300 teams of four compete for bragging rights and a pretty cool plaque, but this was so much more than just a game.

Ahead of his big debut in Avengers: Doomsday as Doctor Doom, Academy Award-winning actor Robert Downey Jr. has officially been named the godparent of the Disney Adventure, Disney Cruise Line's newest and largest ship that is set to make its maiden voyage next month.

The Disney Adventure will first sail out of its home port in Singapore on March 10, and part of Downey Jr.'s responsibilities will be to "christen the ship, vowing to bring it a little luck and a lot of love." The godparent tradition is a huge one that goes back hundreds of years.

"It’s impossible to describe the majesty of the Adventure, and to be its godparent is an honor. As the largest ship in the Disney fleet, a gargantuan blessing must be bestowed … I’ll do my darndest,” Downey said.

“Our new ship continues Disney Cruise Line’s tradition of bringing great stories to life at sea, and we are honored that Robert Downey Jr., who has guided audiences through unforgettable Marvel stories, is the official godparent for the Disney Adventure,” added Josh D’Amaro, Chairman, Disney Experiences and incoming Chief Executive Officer of The Walt Disney Company.

Downey Jr. being the ship's godparent is quite fitting, as there will be tons of Marvel-themed activities for guests to enjoy, including Tony Starks' Ironcycle Test Run. Alongside being inspired by the character Downey Jr. played in the MCU, it will be the first roller coaster on a Disney Cruise Line ship and the longest of its kind at sea.

There will also be an 'Avengers Assemble!' live stage production in the open-air Disney Imagination Garden area, and a Marvel WEB Workshop inside Disney's Oceanner Club for young recruits to "try out new Super Hero suit prototypes and conduct training simulations using top-secret Avengers technology."

Exciting new details have been revealed by Walt Disney World for The Magic of Disney Animation at Disney's Hollywood Studios, including that an Audio-Animatronics figure of Frozen's Olaf will lead a brand-new Animation Academy alongside pre-recorded drawing lessons from legendary Disney animators.

As detailed by the Disney Parks team, The Magic of Disney Animation is currently set to open in late summer, and this new Animation Academy experience will be one of the highlights. Much like he appeared in the short film Once Upon a Studio, Olaf will be sitting at an animator's desk and guiding you through the drawing adventure. And yes, Josh Gad has recorded new dialogue for the snowman to make the figure feel even more authentic.

Since Olaf can't quite draw all of these characters on his own, he is enlisting the help of Disney animators, directors, and story artists to help teach artists of all ages how to bring their favorite characters to life. While there sadly won't be in-person animators like at Disneyland's Animation Academy at Disney California Adventure Park, the list of artists they have lined up is very impressive. It includes;

• Mickey Mouse, with Dan Abraham, director (“Once Upon A Studio,” “Baymax!”)
• Minnie Mouse, with Hyun Min Lee, animator (“Frozen 2,” “The Princess and the Frog”)
• Donald Duck, with Austin Traylor, animator (“Once Upon A Studio,” Moana 2”)
• Genie, with Eric Goldberg, animator (“Aladdin,” “Hercules”)
• Moana, with Samantha Vilfort, story artist (“Encanto,” “Zootopia 2”)
• Stitch, with Fawn Veerasunthorn, director and head of story (“Wish,” “Raya and the Last Dragon”)
• Olaf, with Trent Correy, director (“Once Upon A Studio,” “Frozen 3”)
• Ursula, with Michael Woodside, animator (“Big Hero 6,” “Encanto”)
• Judy Hopps & Nick Wilde, with Byron Howard, director (“Zootopia,” “Zootopia 2”)

Alongside the Animation Academy experience, guests will be able to visit 'Off the Page!,' an area where fan-favorite characters will leave the screen behind and enter our world. There will be different areas that are inspired by the "real animation pipeline at Walt Disney Animation Studios," and guests will be able to meet and greet with specific characters like Mulan in Story, Rapunzel in Layout, Chip n' Dale in Hand-Drawn Animation, Donald & Daisy in CG Animation, Goofy in Lighting, and Stitch in Effects.

There will also be an Enchanted Art Gallery that will feature tons of gorgeous Disney artwork that just may come alive with new animations created for this experience. To end, guests will enter the Once Upon a Studio Theater to enjoy the short film of the same name, and there may even be characters appearing within the artwork along the theater walls to make everything even more immersive.

As previously revealed, The Magic of Disney Animation will also include an Alice in Wonderland-themed playground called 'Drawn to Wonderland," and the main experience will take place in a building modeled after the real Roy E. Disney Animation Building in California, complete with Mickey's iconic Sorcerer Hat on top!

Lastly, there will be an outdoor courtyard of sorts where families will be able to "play, relax, or snack on tasty treats under lush trees."

All in all, this should be a wonderful nostalgia play for Walt Disney World, and you can check what else they have in store for 2026 and beyond right here!

Ahead of the debut of its Red Band trailer during IGN Fan Fest later this week, IGN can exclusively reveal the first poster for Faces of Death, the upcoming reboot of the controversial 1978 horror classic that is set to debut in theaters on April 10, 2026.

While you can check out the trailer on Day 2 of IGN Fan Fest on February 26, this poster should give a tease as to what horrors await those brave enough to see this in theaters. As the poster warns, you won't be able to unsee the things you see on screen.

The original Faces of Death from John Alan Schwartz became a cult classic and quite controversial as it was presented as a faux documentary that rumors claimed featured real-life deaths on screen. While it turned out most of the footage was fake, there was pre-existing footage of real deaths in the film.

In this new take on Faces of Death from director Daniel Goldhaber, the story will continue to explore that 'is it real or not?' conversation, and explore what happens when "a woman working as a content moderator for a major video platform discovers what appears to be re-enactments of murders from the original film. In an online world where nothing can be trusted, she must determine whether the violence is fiction, or unfolding in real time.”

Faces of Death stars Barbie Ferreira (Euphoria), Dacre Montgomery (Stranger Things), Josie Totah (Saved by the Bell), Aaron Holliday (Cocaine Bear), Jermaine Fowler (The Blackening) and Charli XCX (The Moment), and is being written by Goldhaber and Isa Mazzei.
