It’s casting that only the old men of Hollywood could think of (and get away with) – Marisa Tomei, 50, has been cast as Aunt May – Yes, that Aunt May – in the second reboot of the Spider-man franchise, starring Tom Holland as the young superhero.

Tomei takes over from Rosemarry Harris (75 in her first Spider-man movie) and Sally Field (65 in her first Spider-man movie) in the role as Peter Parker’s trusty and caring Aunt May.

Isn’t it strange that the roles for women get younger and younger and we – as a society – are supposedly making tons of progressive?
