It's so cool that they used his likeness for Peter Parker in the 90's Spider-Man animated series. I rarely see anyone mention it, but it's clear as day with a side by side comparison. His natural charm and humble demeanor absolutely fit the role of Parker, and I hold great affection to the 1977 series and his portrayal of the character.

[@KapowComicBookShow]

Never thought of that but you're right they look quite similar!

[@stevenrobinson9856]

I figured they did I wish they had him do the voiceover.

[@michaelvaladez3012]

They should've let Nicholas Hammond play Peter Parker's Uncle Ben in the 2002 Spiderman film.

[@derekkinman7492]

Sorry cliff Robertson was chosen to play ben parker on the 2002 spider man movie

[@massinissa175]

Maybe they should do it in the MCU instead , maybe in some flashback where Peter Parker remembers his memories with uncle Ben ?
Or maybe in some new Sony Spider-Man universe

[@m.o.c.mediaunofficial7788]

It wouldve been crazy if Nicholas Hammond made an appearance briefly along side of Tobey and Andrew in No Way Home ❤❤❤

[@brendannahor1460]

My childhood Spider-Man!
Saw him in the First Spider-Man film "Spider-Man Strikes Back"!
He should DEFINITELY have been in "No Way Home", even if it was just a cameo!!
🤔

[@davidcarrol110]

Bill Bixby attempted to persuade Nicholas Hammond to make a Hulk-Spiderman crossover but it sadly never got to a development stage. He looks very good at 73. The fact that he made a Blaxploitation movie makes me love him more.

[@KapowComicBookShow]

Would have been amazing to see that crossover, here at Kapow love all cinema so it was very fun to bring up that Blaxplotation film.

[@joenichols725]

That would have been good 😢

[@markdwighttadina7655]

He should've been in No Way Home

[@KapowComicBookShow]

Damn Straight

[@Technoid10]

I’m glad that he’s finally getting the respect for playing Spider-Man. He may not have been the greatest or the most well known but he definitely did a decent job bring the character to life for the first time in the 70s.

[@KapowComicBookShow]

It was a great opportunity to chat with him!

[@JLOCC23424]

Bro he's on the list off best Spider-Man actor's I don't care what anyone says.

[@randallreiter9679]

@@JLOCC23424I agree. I was born in 89 but i recently discovered the show. And I love it. I made a copy for myself of the show because no one is smart and releasing it. Has my second favorite Spider-Man after tobey maguire.

[@jamescohen45]

Would loooooove to see him in the MCU. C'MON! My first Spider-Man.

[@blueaero3284]

Nicholas is perfect to play Ezekiel Sims. A character who also had spider-like powers and was mentor to Peter Parker.

[@Smiles121]

So happy to see him he was my childhood hero back in the 70s

[@shanehickenbottom1006]

Nick gave his answer to would u return. If Hollywood doesn't want him to reprise the role, it's on them

[@scott9631]

In my opinion he was the best spider-man I watched him as a kid way before I saw Toby Maguire I’m 26 now, currently watching spiderman strikes back 1978, I’m currently learning to ride a motorcycle and it was probably this film as a kid that made me want a motorcycle, where they “test drive” the bikes and obviously a kid seeing spider-man/Peter Parker get on a motorcycle was very cool 😎.

[@MrMEMER1_0]

Toby has the best lines

[@GabrielLopez-qe2od]

Amazing interview, always wanted to know how he felt for his movies like Spiderman and Black Cobra.

[@KapowComicBookShow]

Cheers Gabriel, let me know who else you'd want us to interview you never know who might turn up.

[@stevensryan-kenneth4017]

I'm so fond of Nicholas Hammond, along with Bill Bixby and Roddy McDowall who are also part of a former generation of actors. I am feeling so sad he was not taken for playing in No Way Home. I feel a little disgusted because of it, even if NWH is a great movie though unfinnished in my eyes because of Nicholas Hammond's absence.

[@harrieroblox906]

He still wanted to play as spiderman

[@maxfrankow1238]

He’ll always be Peter Parker to me.

[@RyanGosling-sb7ei]

If they don’t get this guy to play uncle ben it’s a tragedy

[@KapowComicBookShow]

Totally!

[@jaddenn7660]

They should bring him back to play the MCU's Uncle Ben for Tom Holland

[@sametozkan9175]

The Australian Spidey

[@kevinnelson66]

Nicholas sounds a little like Anthony Daniels here.

Why did you put a thumb down?

[@supermariowoodyaaron9648]

Shut up

[@richardheinz]

He has a American-Australian accent. Here it's more American. I've seen him on Australian tv with more of an Australian accent.
