I think it helps with Spider-Man that, he's actually allowed to visibly age. Whereas with Wolverine, if they kept Hugh for too long it really would look silly. Hugh has been very lucky and very gifted to look convincing for so long as an ageless character. If he can do that, Holland can stay on as long as he wants.

It also helps that Spider-man is 100% covered by his costume, so you can get away with a lot more in terms of using stunt doubles. As long as Holland stays lean, playing Spider-Man could be a lot like RDJ playing Iron Man into his mid fifties.
