“Spider-Man: Homecoming” premiered in German cinemas in 2017, with subsequent installments, “Spider-Man: Far From Home” (2019) and most recently “Spider-Man: No Way Home” in 2021, following each two years. Actually, in 2023 it would have been time for a new part of the popular Spider-Man adventures with the sympathetic wallcrawler Tom Holland, but as we know, nothing comes of it. Apparently fans have to expect a longer wait, because now there is an update about the start of filming for the start of “Spider-Man 4” that is not very pleasant for the impatient.
First of all, the good news: there will be another part, we’ve known that for a few months – and the return of Tom Holland as the friendly neighborhood spider has already been confirmed. But fans of the net swinger will have to be patient, as the mostly well-informed insider Daniel Richtman is now on his revealed, it looks like the first release for the sequel won’t arrive until late 2024 (!).
“Spider-Man 4” won’t hit theaters until 2026
Conversely, this means we can’t expect Tom Holland to fight sinister villains in cinema again until late 2025 at the earliest – Even more likely is that it will hit theaters in 2026. And that would mean a five-year gap between box office success and “Spider-Man: No Way Home” – a long dry spell.
The reasons for the long wait for a sequel lie not only in the actresses’ strike that is still ongoing and which continues to paralyze the wheels of Hollywood, but also in Tom Holland. By his own account, he was at the end of his rope when he completed work on the Apple TV miniseries “The Crowded Room.” In an interview with he explained: “I’m taking a year off now. This is the result of how difficult it was to make this series.”
After all, the expectation is that in addition to Tom Holland, co-star Zendaya will also be in front of the camera again. Jon Watts could do that, just like his predecessors. be responsible for direction again.
