He's just hatched his first baby - a little girl, with fiancee Jennifer Meyer, 29.
The baby was born at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in LA on Thursday. A name hasn't been released yet.
Tobey, 31, shot to fame playing Spider-Man and his alter ego Peter Parker in 2002.

Spider-Man's Baby Girl
Ms Dynamite's 100mph Crash
R&B singer Ms Dynamite is recovering in hospital after a high-speed crash in Sky One's reality show The Race.
The 25-year-old's car went spinning out of control after a collision at speeds of about 100mph.
The singer was conscious as she was airlifted to Northampton General Hospital.
A Sky One spokesman confirmed that she hadn't been seriously injured:
"All the signs are good. She's just very shaken. It was quite a violent collision, but the paramedics were straight on the scene."
Ms Dynamite
The crash happened after Ms Dynamite's car was clipped by fellow contestant Brian Johnson, lead singer of AC/DC, during filming of the show's finale.
The collision sent Ms Dynamite's car spinning for 50 metres before it eventually stopped.
Ms Dynamite - real name Niomi McLean-Daley - is the second celebrity to crash on The Race.
Last week, Ingrid Tarrant (estranged wife of Chris Tarrant), flipped a £150,000 three-tonne truck upside down while trying to jump cars.
She suffered only minor injuries
Si's Xtreme Dilemma
It's not often that Simon Cowell is lost for words.
But this weekend's X-Factor elimination put the normally acid-tongued judge in a tricky spot.
Simon had to choose between two of his own acts on Saturday... a situation he clearly found embarrassing.
Sharon Osbourne voted to eliminate Scottish teenager Nikitta Angus, while Louis Walsh gave the thumbs down to Scouser Raymond Quinn.
So it was left to Simon to cast the deciding vote. He could only shake his head in a rare moment of speechlessness before muttering: "I don't get it."
Nikitta Angus
He left the two acts in suspense, before turning to them and saying: "Right, I've just changed my mind. The act I am sending home tonight is Nikitta."
Niki, 17, had performed Donna Summer's Last Dance to stay in the show. Ray sang Queen's Crazy Little Thing Called Love.
After her elimination, Niki - who's dating fellow contestant Jermaine Sanderson of 4Sure - admitted maybe it was her time to go.
"I was so sad and (saying) 'I don't want to leave,' but you kind of feel a little weight lifted off your shoulders."

'No adoption' for Brangelina
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will not be expanding their family immediately, after reportedly being deterred by the backlash Madonna recently received.
The superstar couple were said to be planning to adopt an Indian orphan while in the country filming 'A Mighty Heart'.
However, they decided to put their plans on the backburner after Madonna was slammed by critics for the way in which she has gone about adopting David Banda from Malawi, an insider told New magazine.
'No one wants to be dragged through the heartache that Madonna has,' the source said. 'It's a real shame.'
The couple already have two adopted children, Maddox and Zahara, and welcomed a biological daughter, Shiloh, in May.
Apparently Angelina was 'saddened' by the criticism Madonna is enduring for wanting to adopt the 13-month-old boy.
'When people start questioning the legality of adoption, of whether you'll be able to keep the child, it gets into a territory that's just heartbreaking,' the source said of Brangelina's reaction to the backlash.
Last month the couple visited Priva Darshini orphanage together in the hopes of finding a child.
'Brad would prefer a boy no older than 18 months to even out the sexes but Angie has told him she can't guarantee she won't fall in love with a little girl,' a source said.
'They had originally hoped to be able to bring the child home before Christmas and had even thought of a name, India, to honour the child's homeland.'
Brad recently declared that he would like to have six children.
Britney files for divorce
Britney Spears has filed for divorce from husband Kevin Federline, according to a court petition apparently filed by the singer yesterday.
Reports claim that a divorce petition filed in Los Angeles' superior court cites "irreconcilable differences" between the couple as the reason for the split.
News of the separation comes after Spears appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman earlier this week without wearing her wedding ring.
It also comes just two months after the pop princess gave birth to the couple's second son, James Jayden, who was born on September 12th, a year after the birth of her first child, Sean Preston.
According to reports, divorce papers filed by Spears show that the wealthy singer has asked for sole custody of the two children, but is not seeking spousal support.
The date of the separation between Spears, 24, and Federline, 28, is stated as November 6th in the court documents.
The reported split between the couple follows a period of intense media speculation about their relationship, with previous reports having suggested that Spears had been increasingly left at home holding the babies while her husband apparently neglected his fathering duties and went out partying instead.
A bizarre reality show chronicling the couple's marriage, which was screened last year, did little to quell rumours that everything was not right between Spears and Federline, who was one of the singer's former dancers until the couple secretly married in 2004.
Yet only last week Mr Spears told the Associated Press that he and his wife had a "love-at-first-sight-type deal" that had yet to fade.
The rapper, who has had limited success in pursuing his own music career, already has two children by his former girlfriend, actress Shar Jackson.
It also looks like being a case of oops, I did it again, in the failed marriage stakes for Spears, whose previous union with childhood sweetheart Jason Alexander was annulled just days after their spur-of-the-moment Las Vegas wedding in 2004.
Meanwhile, it was revealed on Monday that the singer, who shot to fame in 1999 with her debut single Baby One More Time, had lost her defamation case against Us Weekly.
Spears had argued that the magazine's claims that she and her husband had made a sexually explicit tape were "false and outrageous".

Nicole and Liam to marry eventually
Nicole Appleton has revealed that she thinks of partner Liam Gallagher as her husband.
The singers, who started dating in 2000 and have a five year old son Gene, are currently basking in domestic bliss but eventually plan to make their union official.
'We will get married, of course we will. Absolutely yes,' Appleton told the Sun newspaper.
'We're pretty much married anyway and I call him my husband sometimes. We come as a unit. Wherever he goes, our son Gene and I go.'
'Having children together is a bigger commitment than getting married.'
Appleton, who became famous in the 90s in 'All Saints' with the smash hit 'Never Ever', has recently reformed with her band mates.
The blonde singer says that Gallagher encouraged her to go back to work.
'He has been totally supportive of me and the girls,' she said.
Gallagher, along with brother Noel, has built up a reputation as a wild man of rock and roll. Appleton's parents, however, are unfazed that the 'Oasis' front man will eventually be their son in law.
'My parents love Liam. They think he's so lovely,' Appleton said.
Hilton: I'm no sex symbol
Paris Hilton insists that her racy image is an act and claims she is much happier watching the TV over a plate of food behind closed doors.
The singer, whose fame skyrocketed after an amateur sex tape staring her and ex-boyfriend Rick Soloman was released on the internet, told Seventeen magazine that guys are often disappointed with how she really is.
"People shouldn't judge me and assume that's how I am," she says of her public image.
"I get in so many fights with guys who are like: 'In public, you are the sexiest sex symbol, but you're not sexual at all at home'."
"I'm like: 'Whatever, shut up. I don't wanna be'."
The star, who has been engaged to Greek shipping heir Paris Latsis and has dated another Greek billionaire Stavros Niachros, is frequently linked to eligible men.
Recently she was seen partying in LA with a male model before dancing with rocker Travis Barker.
But Hilton says that sex is not a priority for her.
"I'd rather watch a movie or Lost, or like, eat," she said.

Hot news: Nichole Richie Fainted
Nicole Richie passed out at Hyde nightclub early Sunday morning in Hollywood.
We're told it occurred just before 2 a.m., when Richie passed out and fell to the floor. An employee approached Richie and her friends and said he was calling 911.
We are all worried for Richie health.
Jackson to wed?
Michael Jackson has been laying low since he was found not guilty of child molestation charges last year.
But now the King of Pop is continuing to turn his life around since the charges and his financial woes by reportedly marrying the nanny of his children.
According to the Daily Star, Jackson, who has previously been wed to Lisa Marie Presley and Debbie Rowe, the mother of his two eldest children, is now set to marry Grace Rwaramba.
Rwaramba, who is referred to as "mum" by Jackson's children, and the Thriller singer are rumoured to have been planning a wedding since the custody battle with Rowe was settled.
Rowe was seeking full custody of their children, Prince Michael and Paris, after she claimed that Jackson was an unfit parent.
Jackson, however, will continue to have full parental rights of them. He is also a father to Prince Michael II, who he calls Blanket. He agreed to pay Rowe £400,000 per year.
The singer, who has lived in the Middle East since his acquittal in 2005, is planning to make his first appearance in England in ten years.
He is set to appear at the World Music Awards in November

Madonna Spolied Brat ,watch this video.
I had no idea that Madonna would act like this. She is acting like a spoiled brat. BUT, I guess money doesnt always make people nice.
The Next Kate Moss...
She's a lady, and she's a model, and she's with Jefferson Hack.
But she ain't Kate Moss.
No peeps, this is Jeff's current love, Belgian model Anouck Lepere.
They have in fact been dating since 2005, but we just haven't seen them out and about much.
Rumour has it they are planning a trip down the aisle, although this has not been confirmed.
Jeff is the father of Kate's daughter Lila Grace, but he and Kate never made it to the 'I do' stage.
But could he be about to embark on a matrimonial journey with his next model, Anouck?
Watch this space showbiz fans, watch this space
Whose Buff Beach Bod?
Looks like someone has been spending their pennies down the gym rather than in a vending machine.
She clearly has very strong willpower.
And it's hard work that has paid off for Myleene Klass.
Of course, she could have naturally toned arms and thighs and her flat stomach could be down to good genes.
But that would mean that life isn't fair - what with her also being a talented musician and thoroughly all-round good egg.
Some of you might not even care how Myleene got to be this perfect - but may we direct you to the gallery above, where you can take a closer look at that foxy figure...
Whilst we pop off to the gym.
What Tyra Did Next
That Tyra Banks is one busy lady...
She's already dabbled in modelling, TV presenting, and the pop world.
And now she's moving into movie producing.
Tyra, 33, is said to have been signed up to make a kid's flick for Nickelodeon Films.
The former model is staying tight-lipped about the project, but suggested to StarPulse.com that she might actually appear in the movie: "I do want to act sometimes".
Meanwhile, with two hits on her hands with her US daytime chat show and America's Next Top Model, Tyra admits that walking away from her modelling career last year was one of the best decisions she ever made.
"I haven't missed modelling at all.
"Towards the end of my career, it was something I did, but I didn't get a lot of pleasure out of it."
Gwyneth Backs Brad
Staying mates with your ex is a real rarity.
And saying nice things about them in public is even harder. 
Gwyn was full of praise for his acting talents after catching his latest movie, Babel.
"It's the best performance Brad's ever given," said Gwyneth, following the screening in New York.
The Oscar-winning actress is convinced Brad will bag an Oscar himself in 2007 for his role as a frantic husband trying to save his wife's life in Morocco.
Babel, which co-stars hunky Gael Garcia Bernal, is about the chaos that follows when a Moroccan boy accidentally shoots a bus of tourists.
Gwyneth said it gave her pause for thought: "It makes you want to take good care of your children," she said.
Helena Christensen, who also attended the screening, was full of praise too: "It's this year's Crash, don't you think?"
When we hear Jennifer Aniston's comments on the film, we'll pass them straight on
Kate And Pete Say Yes
They are... they aren't. They are... but they aren't.
After all these months of speculation, we were wondering if Kate Moss and Pete Doherty would ever confirm the exact status of their relationship.
And now we know.
Yes, the supermodel and Babyshambles singer have - at long last - spoken out, and yes, they are getting married.
Absolutely, definitely, 100 per cent.
Thank the Lord, we can now rest easy.
The couple confirmed the rumours at the Moet & Chandon party earlier this week, where they also reportedly serenaded each other in a karaoke room.
Karaoke? At a posh celeb party? We ask you.
Anyway, Kate said: "We are engaged," and Pete added: "We are getting married."
The news comes just in time for some hat shopping at the weekend.
Caught: Eva And Dom
It feels like we've been speculating about whether Evangeline Lilly and Dominic Monaghan are an item for eons.
But now we have proof that they are.
The secretive Lost stars, who have refused point blank to talk about whether they are together or not, have finally decided to shed all inhibitions in public.
Don't get too excited, we are not alluding to anything rude here.
But, the question has been answered and the facts cannot be disputed.
We are starting to sound like a law firm now, but proof is proof after all.
Take a look at what we're talking about in the gallery above.
Fox defends political advert
Michael J. Fox has hit back at claims his appearance on a political advert was an act.
The actor, who has advanced Parkinson's disease, appeared on a 30-second commercial in the US to urge people to support stem cell research.
Speaking in an advert for Claire McCaskill, a Democrat in Missouri who supports the research and is challenging Republican senator Jim Talent for his seat in the state, Fox says: "They say all politics is local, but that's not always the case. What you do in Missouri matters to millions of Americans. Americans like me."
Fox, who battled with the disease while it was still in its early stages during production of Spin City, was moving uncontrollably during the piece.
The ad had a moving effect on many and led to some unexpected outbursts regarding the seriousness of Fox's condition.
Rightwing US radio host Rush Limbaugh accused Fox of playing up for the cameras.
But Fox has defended his stance on stem cell research, which could aid in finding a cure for the neurological disease, and his current condition.
"The irony is that I was too medicated," he said.
"Because the thing aboutbeing symptomatic is that it's not comfortable. No one wants to be symptomatic; it's like being hit with a hammer."
Fox, who starred in the blockbuster franchise Back to the Future, said that without appropriate medication he is unable to function.
"At this point now, if I didn't take medication I wouldn't be able to speak," he said.
The actor was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 1991. He didn't make his illness public until 1998.

'Good loving' keeps Bullock inspired
Sandra Bullock made an interesting revelation into the secret of her professional success.
The stunning actress told the audience at the Hollywood Film Festival that bedtime with her husband is key to achieving her career goals.
When accepting an award at the festival, the actress said: 'I'd like to thank my boyfriend Jesse James, whom I happen to be married to.'
'You inspire me with the good loving you give me every day - and especially last night! Really ... you have no idea.'
The 'Crash' star also revealed a very un-Hollywood characteristic during an interview.
Bullock claimed that she loved to eat especially free food she gets at press conferences.
'When I come to meet the press to publicise my films, I get free food, so that's a day when I saved some money, which has to be a good thing!' she said.
The actress, who starred in and produced 'Miss Congeniality' about an undercover policewoman entering a beauty pageant, revealed her unusual secret for staying youthful.
'I didn't realise that putting haemorrhoid ointment on your face is acceptable in the beauty business. But apparently butt cream does help lines around the eyes,' the 41-year old said.
Richie checks in for treatment
Nicole Richie has checked into a treatment facility to find out why she is unable to put on weight, the star's publicist has confirmed.
"Nicole Richie has decided to undergo diagnostic treatment to determine why she's not been putting on any weight," said spokeswoman Nicole Perna in a statement yesterday.
Perna added that the daughter of singer Lionel Richie was "working with a team of doctors and specialists whose focus is nutrition".
But the star's publicist stressed that her client was not being treated for an eating disorder.
"It is important to Nicole that she achieves this goal in a healthy way as this is not a treatment for an eating disorder," said Perna, commenting on the Hollywood socialite's desire to gain weight.
Despite denials of an eating disorder from the Richie camp, news of the star's treatment is likely to prompt further press speculation about her health.
The 25-year-old star recently admitted to Vanity Fair magazine: "I know I'm too thin right now. I'm not happy with the way I look."
But tiny Richie has vociferously denied media reports that she is suffering from an eating disorder, posting a statement on her MySpace web page last month insisting that contrary to "false accusations" made by CNN she had not checked herself into rehab because of one.
"I don't know why or how this rumour started, but I am home, in LA, and very happy. I do not have an eating disorder, and I don't know how many times I have to say it," the star ranted.
Meanwhile, it has been revealed that filming on the latest series of the Simple Life has been temporarily put on hold while Richie seeks the treatment her reps have confirmed she will undergo.
The news comes just a couple of weeks after it was revealed that Richie and her co-star in the reality series, heiress Paris Hilton, have ended a long-term feud. The pair were spotted dining together at a West Hollywood restaurant earlier this month.
Jessica Simpson logs on for love
Divorcee Jessica Simpson is logging onto the internet in an attempt to find a mate.
The sexy singer, who split from husband Nick Lachey one year ago, has reportedly created a MySpace account under a different name in an effort to meet a man.
Simpson, who had a rumoured short-lived romance with singer John Mayer, has been feeling lonely and taking solace in anonymous internet dating.
'After she split up with John she set up a MySpace page to meet new people,' a source told More magazine.
'She did it in a fake name but got really into it. She's totally addicted. Whenever she's at home, she's on her laptop.'
The 'Employee of the Month' star has been vocal about the trouble she has finding a man since she split with Lachey.
The buxom blonde, who has topped many sexiest people lists around the world, apparently uses the internet to find someone who is attracted to her personality first.
'She pretends to be this shy Texan girl.'
Simpson's latest album, 'A Public Affair' documents her life since she became a single woman again.
