Spider-Man is one of us. Continually striving to balance his relationships and work with his superhero obligations, he often falls short, albeit while putting on a brave face to his own detriment.
Directors Sam Raimi, Marc Webb, Jon Watts and Destin Daniel Cretton have presented subtly different takes on Peter Parker. Each iteration has proven so wildly successful that Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland can all claim to be the web-slinger in his definitive form.
Then came Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey and Rodney Rothman to dramatically redefine the friendly neighborhood superhero through Shameik Moore’s depiction of Miles Morales, a mantle that’s since been carried by Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers and Justin K. Thompson.
In short, everyone’s got their own favourite Spider-Man, whether he’s yearning awkwardly after MJ, stylishly sleuthing around New York City, quipping with Doctor Strange or growing up under the twin strains of his father’s expectations and the impending collapse of the multiverse. That’s a lot.
And with the recent release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, we’ve caught the bug all over again. Read on as we explain how to watch every Spider-Man movie for free from anywhere for a limited time.
Can you watch Spider-Man movies for free?
Yes. Viewers in the UK can watch every Spider-Man movie on the BBC iPlayer streaming service. You’ll need a TV licence, naturally.

Are there any other Spider-Man movies?
Spider-Man (1977), Spider-Man Strikes Back (1978) and Spider-Man: The Dragon’s Challenge (1981) formed a trilogy starring Nicholas Hammond as the titular hero, and Spider-Man (1978) is a Japanese adaptation led by Shinji Todō.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) isn’t yet available via home media, while Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse is set for release in June 2027.
There have also been numerous Spider-Man spinoffs, such as the lukewarmly received Venom trilogy, the Spider-Ham: Caught in a Ham (2019) and The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story (2023) shorts, and the critically and commercially disastrous Morbius (2022), Madame Web (2024) and Kraven the Hunter (2024).
Spider-Man has also appeared in Captain America: Civil War (2016), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), and Avengers: Endgame (2019).
How many Spider-Man movies are there?
There have been 15 Spider-Man movie adaptations, as of July 2026.
That includes the three early TV film adaptations – which aren’t feature-length and therefore not among the the 10 available on BBC iPlayer – and recently released Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) and next year’s Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse (2027).
Can you download the Spider-Man movies?
None of the Spider-Man movies are available to download from BBC iPlayer.
