Sony and Insomniac Games have pulled back the curtain on the upcoming remaster of Marvel's Spider-Man on PlayStation 5. There are some noticeable differences between the game and the PS4 original, but one of the biggest is the fact that the developer has recast Peter Parker with actor Ben Jordan. The new face has resulted in some controversy among fans, but many have also noticed Jordan's strong resemblance to a different actor: Tom Holland! Holland, of course, portrays Peter Parker in the Spider-Man films from Sony and Marvel Studios. The resemblance is pretty striking, and a lot of fans have shared their feelings about it on social media!

People are saying the new face of Spidey (that looks like Tom Holland) is a child based on ONE SCREENSHOT. Give him a chance! I think he'll turn out great 😇 pic.twitter.com/zbkrbz0Vqu

Don't worry, people. Tom Holland is okay!

I thought something bad happened to Tom Holland, but he just looks like the new Peter Parker in the Spider-Man game, continue.

It does make the Peter look closer to Miles' age...

I'm supposed to believe that this Tom Holland looking Peter Parker is older than Miles Morales now? Yeah sure #BringBackBumniak pic.twitter.com/ttIwZ4YOIf

...or younger.

Actually it does look more like Tom Holland's younger brother. I love Tom Holland but ... I dont like the change. The previous Peter was totally fine. This one looks like a middle schooler.. https://t.co/2Qqx2F0mif

Likeness rights are a bit tricky!

It’s like they wanted Tom Holland but couldn’t get the rights to his likeness

Holland is around Peter's age in the game, though.
