You raise an interesting point. I actually enjoy Holland's performance, but Peter won't be a kid forever. The Spidey I grew up reading was a full grown man with a wife, a job, etc. If (and it's a big if with so many iterations of the character in the comics these days) they continue Spidey films into his adulthood, I'm curious as to whether they would stick with Holland or recast. They're kind of stuck with Holland at this point, aren't they? The franchise has been rebooted so many times they almost have to stick with Holland for continuity's sake. It presents an ironic twist on the issue of casting a younger character. Usually you worry about casting a kid and hoping he doesn't age out of the role; this time the actor may end up looking too young to play an adult Peter Parker. Peter isn't a lumberjack by any means but he has to be a little more rugged than Holland by the time he's 27, no? They can easily make him appear older if they need to. They can do some amazing things in Hollywood. It'll have more to do with his performance. Sure they can give him a different haircut and change his wardrobe, but the nuance of character obviously comes down to the actor. Sooner or later Peter will have more confidence and be a little less awkward, it'll be up to Holland to convey that.
