Sam Raimi brought the first big-screen depiction of Spider-Man to life, and his influence on the superhero genre is immeasurable. Even the latest Spider-Man movie, Homecoming, paid respect to the original film with similar hero/villain interactions. The moment that Michael Keaton realizes Peter is Spider-Man is just as menacing and memorable as the moment Willem Dafoe did the same in the original. Raimi wasn&#8217;t always a fan of placing Stan Lee in the films as a cameo reports <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/stan-lee-wasnt-going-get-spider-man-cameo-director-reveals-1161054" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">The Hollywood Reporter</a>, but he warmed up to the idea later. 
&#8220;I got the job for Spider-Man in 1999. And [Marvel head] Avi Arad said, &#8216;I want you to put Stan in the movie,'&#8221; revealed Raimi. &#8220;And I was like, &#8216;No. I know Stan, and he can&#8217;t act.&#8217; And Avi was, &#8216;I want him in the movie. We did it for X-Men, we&#8217;re doing it here.&#8217; Now imagine you&#8217;re a minor director in England doing Macbeth and you&#8217;re told, &#8216;Put the writer in the play.&#8217; It sounds absurd. &#8216;Fine, you want Shakespeare in the play, I&#8217;ll put Shakespeare in the play.&#8217; Now it&#8217;s one of my favorite parts in the movie.&#8221; 
Stan&#8217;s appearances in both Captain Marvel and Avengers 4 have already been filmed. Beyond that, I believe Disney may have a <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/stan-lee-already-filmed-avengers-4-cameo-and-others-news.64395.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">vault of cameos</a> lined up for the future.
