Although Disney-owned Marvel has spent considerable time and money in the last several years consolidating the movie and TV rights to its various superhero characters, the onscreen adventures of Marvel's flagship character, Spider-Man, are still a bit of a sprawling mess. That applies both to the convoluted narrative continuity and the movies' streaming availability.
Two different actors, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, played the web-slinging hero in movies produced by Sony that exist separately from the Marvel Cinematic Universe that launched in 2008. Thanks to a deal between Disney and Sony, Spider-Man joined the MCU in 2016, played by Tom Holland, but his movies are still produced by Sony, so they're not always available on Disney Plus, the MCU's main streaming home.
