Spider-Man has donned various costumes throughout his cinematic journey. As a superhero known for regularly changing his attire, he’s amassed a collection of iconic looks. This article ranks the top 12 Spider-Man costumes in film history.
12) Tom Holland’s Homemade Costume
In Captain America: Civil War, Peter Parker makes his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). He later appears in his own film, Spider-Man: Homecoming, where he crafts his first makeshift costume. Although not particularly well-executed, it features round glasses and a red and blue color scheme, showing that he has ideas in mind but lacking in practical execution.
11) Night Monkey
In Spider-Man: Far From Home, Peter Parker travels to Europe for a school trip. To conceal Spider-Man’s presence in Italy, he dons a black suit and adopts the alias Night Monkey. This military-style outfit adds a layer of stealth, hinting at a connection to S.H.I.E.L.D. and Nick Fury.
10) Tony Stark’s Costume
Giving Peter Parker a heroic edge, Tony Stark gifts him a costume during Captain America: Civil War. Imbued with Spider-Man’s iconic red and blue colors, this suit also features an AI sidekick created by Stark, assisting the superhero through his adventures.
9) Tom Holland’s Red and Black Suit
In Far From Home, Peter returns to his classic red and black suit. Sporting a sleek design and familiar colors, this outfit includes small wings under the arms, allowing him to glide like a wingsuit flyer.
8) The Amazing Spider-Man
Andrew Garfield’s portrayal of Peter Parker has won over fans. In 2012, Sony introduced The Amazing Spider-Man, featuring a classic Spider-Man costume in red and blue. The standout feature is the eye design, which resembles a true spider more closely than its predecessors.
7) Tobey Maguire’s Iconic Suit
This costume embodies the nostalgia of many: the iconic look features vibrant red and blue hues that are now ingrained in the public’s memory of Spider-Man. While it may not be the sleekest design, its cultural significance is undeniable.
6) Iron Spider
The Iron Spider suit is a standout in the comics, gifted to Peter Parker by Tony Stark during the Civil War. This iconic armor enhances Spider-Man’s abilities with nearly indestructible spider legs, a stealth mode, and a range of gadgets, showcasing Stark’s advanced nanotechnology.
5) The Amazing Spider-Man 2
Arguably the best classic Spider-Man costume, Andrew Garfield’s suit in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 stays true to the comics with larger eyes and white lenses that react to the character’s emotions. An appealing design that fans would love to wear daily.
4) Miles Morales
A detour into animation reveals the stunning black and red suit of Miles Morales. With a more mature vibe and darker tones, Miles’ outfit has gained cult status over time. Under the direction of Phil Lord and Peter Ramsey, this costume becomes an incredibly iconic representation.
3) Spider-Gwen
In Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, audiences are introduced to Spider-Gwen, an alternate universe version of Gwen Stacy. After Peter Parker’s demise, she takes on the superhero mantle with a striking design—featuring a stunning white suit adorned with black and pink accents and a badass hood for concealing her identity.
2) Spider-Man Noir
The Spider-Man Noir from Into the Spider-Verse emerges from a dark and unforgiving world, inspired by 1930s noir films. This character operates in a colorless universe reminiscent of Sin City. Dressed in all black, he dons a detective’s hat and a long trench coat, making for a captivating and enduring portrayal.
1) Venom
Without a doubt, the most compelling costume is the fusion of Peter Parker with Venom in Spider-Man 3. This dark and imposing black suit embodies Peter’s darker side, creating a visual representation of the struggle between good and evil.
