Recasting Tom Holland

I love Tom Holland as much as the next guy, but he kind of gets cast in everything. Not even because he's the right man for the job, but because he's a hot ticket at the box office. Which begs the question, who else could've played some of his most notable characters if he weren't available. No offense to Tom, but you know-- why not.
