1. Spider-Man
- Tom Holland as Spider-Man (2017-) — Replaced Andrew Garfield after Sam Raimi's trilogy and Tobey Maguire's original run.
2. Doctor Strange
- Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange (2016-) — Replaced Robert Downey Jr.'s character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, though not a direct recast of any previous role.
3. Iron Man
- Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark / Iron Man (2008-) — The first appearance and established the character for subsequent films, including recasts in other roles like Hawkeye.
Pro tip: Recasting can bring new energy to a franchise but may also disrupt continuity. Always check reviews before watching!
