- Paul Soles was born on August 11, 1930 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He was an actor and writer, known for The Score (2001), The Incredible Hulk (2008) and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964). He was married to Jean Allan. He died on May 26, 2021 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
- SpouseJean Allan (1 child)
- RelativesBernard Cowan(Cousin)
- He was the first actor ever to play the role of Marvel Comics' character Spider-Man, which he did in the original Spider-Man (1967) cartoon.
- Has twice shared the screen with Edward Norton: first in The Score (2001) and next in The Incredible Hulk (2008). The latter appearance bore some irony as Soles has been long-credited as the first actor to portray Bruce Banner.
- Lives in a retirement complex in Toronto with fellow Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964) cast member Billie Mae Richards.
- In a December 2014 interview at Toronto Comic Con, he refuted the long-held belief that he was the first actor to portray Bruce Banner. Despite being credited as portraying Banner for "The Marvel Super Heroes" (1966) and Hulk (1966), he stated the credit was incorrect (though he did not specify who the actual actor was).
- Lives in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
