Tobey McGuire a Private Guy
April 14th, 2007Bravo to Tobey McGuire, who catapulted to instant overnight success as a big box office actor with the making of the first Spider Man movie, the most successful comic book adapted franchise to date which spawned the making of countless other comic book based movies that tried to duplicate the success and the relatability of the Spider Man movies, but most failed.
My boyfriend sure does love this trend of comic book movies. He’s an avid comic reader, and he also collects original comic art, so for him this era of film making is practically a dream come true. Mcguire has somehow managed to escape the throngs of paparazzi that so many other stars of his caliber have to deal with, and yet he seems so normal, with a fiance and a baby, both of whom you barely ever see.
McGuire has said in interviews that he refuses to discuss his personal life, and that anything about his movies he’s trying to promote is fair game, but his private life is off limits. And that’s how celebrity privacy is achieved. Voila. Paris Hilton should learn from Tobey McGuire. Oh wait, she loves all the attention, forget it.
Tobey reportedly hasn’t yet signed on for another Spider Man movie after this summer’s Spider Man 3, and he hasn’t really let on whether he intends to or not. He has said he likes to play diverse characters though, so maybe this is it for him. I’m sure he’ll find success in whatever movies he acts in, because he truly is a gifted actor with great diversity.
