Earlier, I had this trivia question:

"Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland all played a live action Spider-Man.

Who was the first actor to play a live action Spider-Man? It was in a TV show"

Valcazar and I agreed that it was Nicholas Hammond in "The Amazing SpiderMan" TV show, however upon further research, I discovered that Hammond was not the first to play the live action character, It was Danny Seagren from the children's show , The Electric Company:

Yes, that's Morgan Freeman playing the cop.
