Mary Rivera, the beloved grandmother of Ned Leeds in Spider-Man: No Way Home, passed away after a stroke, with her family honoring her wishes by removing her from life support. Cremated and leaving behind a loving family including her husband, children, and grandchildren, Rivera’s journey to stardom began with a Facebook casting call seeking a Filipina grandmother from Hawaiʻi — a role she landed thanks to her daughter’s quick action. Her brief but iconic screen time connected her to millions, proving that sometimes, destiny shows up on a social media scroll. A small-world miracle turned into a big-screen legacy.
