J.K. Simmons will always be the most perfect J. Jonah Jameson in Spider-Man films!

Whoever would have taken over the role of Jameson had big shoes to fill. Thankfully, Marvel didn’t bother and respected the slot in the most shocking way possible. 

J. Jonah Jameson has been a steady thistle in 'Peter Parker's' life as far back as the beginning of #Spiderman. Jameson's revelations that Spider-Man was a danger to the open made it progressively hard for Spidey to fabricate a brave name for himself (something that he is nowhere near to let go even after so many years -- as shown by Far From Home mid-credits)  — and Jameson horribly underpaid Peter for those photos!

Regardless of Jameson's significance to the character, he has been missing from the movies since Spider-Man 3, two full reboots prior. For a long time, it made one wonder: if that he is so critical to the Spider-Man mythos, exactly where has he been?

But resting the fan assured, MCU looks like it has successfully answered that mystery. It's now safe to quit wasting time in thinking about who would be next Daily Bugle's CEO. J.K. Simmons' portrayal of the character in Sam Raimi's set of three was utterly PERFECT. He looked precisely right, and he acted decisively like the comic book form, rough and curmudgeonly.

J.K. Simmons' form of J. Jonah Jameson was so immaculate and exact to the comics that he went on to later play Jameson in a number of animated series. At the point when Simmons wasn't voicing Jameson, he was regularly played by different on-screen characters attempting to complete an impression of Simmons.

Simmons plays him with a ridiculous cartoonish quality that left a permanent imprint on the majority of our recollections and is still effectively a standout amongst the best things about Sam Raimi's Spider-Man set of three.

Which is also a bad thing.

His portrayal is so affectionately recollected that regardless of who is thrown in the job, odds are we'll compare them with J.K. Simmons. To recast J. Jonah Jameson, you must be consistent with the soul of the character, yet in addition, be distinctive enough that spectators won't consider the-to-be-actor as "J.K. Simmons-light."

In Spider-Man: Far From Home's mid-credits scene, a surprising cameo blew longtime fans of Marvel's web-shooter out of their seats. It turns out, the creators behind the most recent entry to the Marvel Cinematic Universe always wanted to pull off the surprise entry.

When Spider-Man landed in New York City, we saw Mysterio sending a recorded message to the Daily Bugle which framed him as the criminal villain behind the elemental attacks around the world. When the monitors on the City streets revealed the face of the Daily Bugle's voice, it was J.K. Simmons portraying J. Jonah Jameson. The same beloved actor from the Tobey Maguire trilogy is officially playing a brand new version of the same character.

Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige had an undisputable explanation for keeping the J Jonah Jameson untouched,

“It was an idea we had from the very earliest conversations of, if we at Marvel Studios get to work with Sony and make a Spider-Man movie, we want to bring Jameson back, somehow. And thinking about who it could be, we really thought J.K. as an actor is so versatile, and you look at his amazing iconic performance in the Raimi films. But then look at his amazing performances in Whiplash and in other films. You go, 'It can be the same guy but a different tone, and tap into a sort of more modern, news personalities of today”.
