Spider-Man fans are interested not only in what the new part of the popular series will be like, but also in the personal lives of their heroes. A total of ten episodes were released from 2002 to 2021. During this time, Spider-Man was portrayed by three actors: Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, and Tom Holland, and their lovers Kirsten Dunst, Emma Stone, and Zendaya, respectively.
After Zendaya appeared at the Golden Globes with a ring on the “same” finger, the Internet started talking about the actress’s engagement to Holland. And the rumors turned out to be true! We also remember the couples trying to build love in Spider-Man.
Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst

Tobey Maguire took on the role of Spider-Man in Sam Raimi’s 2000 trilogy. He appeared in three films: Spider-Man (2002), Spider-Man 2 (2004) and Spider-Man 3 (2007). Kirsten Dunst played his girlfriend, Mary Jane Watson, in all three episodes.
Maguire and Dunst started dating during the filming of the first movie. They tried not to advertise their relationship: even the director did not know about it until the couple broke up.
After filming ended in July 2001, Maguire and Dunst began making public appearances together. In April 2002, Dunst admitted in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that she was interested in the role in part because of Maguire.
“From the moment I learned about this project, even before Peter Parker appeared on the screens, I have been dreaming of starring in Spider-Man. “But when I learned that Tobey Maguire would play the role, the desire increased even more,” he shared. “He is incredibly talented and attractive, but the most important thing is that he works flawlessly. I have wanted to work with him for a long time,” the actor added.
At the beginning of 2002, the romance between Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst ended. The stars managed to maintain friendly relations. Director Sam Raimi admitted he was worried about this in an interview with the Sydney Morning Herald in May 2007: “I guess I didn’t know it at the time, but they started dating during the shooting of the first movie. However, they undoubtedly broke up before work on the second film began. “I was worried that their old chemistry would be lost, but that was just my concern.”
Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone

Andrew Garfield’s journey in the series began in December 2010. Emma Stone played his love interest, Gwen Stacy. Although it is unclear exactly when they started dating, they met during the filming of the first Amazing Spider-Man movie.
The couple was first seen on a date in Los Angeles in November 2011. Like Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst, Garfield and Stone did not want the press to know about their relationship. But they were seen on multiple dates over the course of four years and spoke fondly of each other on press tours.
“It’s a dream to work with him. He’s absolutely one of the greatest actors of our time and a wonderful human being,” Stone said in a 2014 interview with ABC News.
In April 2015, the relationship between Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone ended. After a brief reconciliation in May, they finally separated in October of the same year. “They still love each other. They have a good relationship and remain close,” a source told People.
Garfield and Stone parted ways as friends and never missed a chance to support each other at premieres. So, in May 2017, Stone arrived at the West End production of Garfield, and Garfield attended the London premiere of Stone’s film The Wretched Ones in December 2023.
Tom Holland and Zendaya

Tom Holland became the last actor to play Spider-Man. His first film was Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017). Zendaya was cast as his love interest, Michelle “MJ” Jones-Watson.
In July 2017, the relationship between the characters began to be discussed for the first time outside of the cinema. However, the actors did not confirm their relationship until they were spotted on a date in the summer of 2021.
Just two months later, they officially announced their relationship on a banned social network. Holland wished Zendaya a happy 25th birthday, calling her “my MJ.” Holland and Zendaya tried to keep their relationship away from the public, but it was extremely difficult to do so due to their popularity.
“Our relationship is something that we’re incredibly protective of and want to keep as sacred as possible,” Holland told The Hollywood Reporter in a June 2023 interview. “We don’t feel like we have to share this, it’s just our job and it has nothing to do with our career,” he added.
Earlier this year, it became known that Tom Holland and Zendaya were engaged. But shortly after the news broke, the Dune star’s father denied it (and rather rudely). Holland’s father later confirmed that the actor was engaged to Zendaya.
