SpiderMan trilogy actor Bruce Campbell hilariously shades NoWayHome: 'I was in the good ones'
✖ With great cameos must come great mockery. Cameoing as a ring announcer, an usher, and a maître d' in director Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy between 2002 and 2007, Bruce Campbell proved to be as much a menace to Peter Parker as supervillains the Green Goblin and Doctor Octopus .
"In the first Spider-Man, I have what they call a cameo role. A small little role. But sir, that's a pivotal role," a not-so-serious Campbell said of his cameo as the ring announcer who dramatically introduces amateur wrestler"The Human Spider" as"The Amazing Spider-Man" in 2002's Spider-Man. Campbell continued,"I love Tobey Maguire. I showed up in the first one, he goes, 'Oh, you're a friend of Sam's? Hi! How are you?' The second one, he goes, 'Are you back?!' The third one, he walks on set, 'I guess we can't make a Spider-Man without Bruce Campbell!' I'm like, 'You're starting to get the idea, punk!'"
