now there have been many many many many Spider-Man and even spider ham to make it to the big screen but what if Spidey had made his big screen debut in the '90s instead of the early 2000s well this one is easier to hypothesize than all of the other versions of the MCU characters we've done so far now back in the ' 80s the characters's Creator Stan Lee optioned Spidey writes out and the Terminator and Aliens director James Cameron was eventually hired to write and direct a Spider-Man movie Cameron wrote a 60-page scriptlet which was a more grounded and serious take on the character than supero Works before it in his version Peter is a socially awkward yet gifted team with a crush on Mary Jane Who develops Powers after being bitten by a mutated fighter it was even Cameron who came up with the organic web shooters which Rainey fostered in his Spider-Man series but who would play the tular webslinger Cameron had one name in mind Leonardo DiCaprio the man he would end up directing in Titanic DiCaprio wasn't at his Titanic level Fame but he was a rising star in Hollywood and Cameron saw that he had the talent to play this philosophical version of the character however Cameron's Vision never came to be and while DiCaprio was offered the chance to play Spider-Man in ry's version he ultimately turned it down with a part instead going to his friend Toby McGuire but what do you think of this alternate version would you like to have seen DiCaprio as Spidey let us know in the comments
