In late 2021, Tom Holland last swung through the urban canyons of New York as Peter Parker aka Spider-Man in “Spider-Man: No Way Home.” Since then, fans have been waiting for the popular wall-crawler to return to the big screen. While there are always signs of life regarding the sequel, there is little solid information on “Spider-Man 4” as of yet and accordingly the rumor mill is bubbling quite heavily at the moment.
The usually very well-informed insider Daniel Richtman (via ) now wants to know that those in charge at Sony are probably thinking about including one of the most popular elements from “Spider-Man: No Way Home” in the sequel – and again Tobey Maguire And Andrew Garfield Put on the red-blue spider suit.
Of course, it would also be clear that there would be a lot of multiverse chaos again in “Spider-Man 4”.
Disagreement over the direction of the series
However, contrary to these ideas, there are reports that both Marvel are calling the shots Kevin Fig as well as the Spider-Man protagonists Tom Holland would like to see a return to the series’ roots with “Spider-Man 4.” Instead of beating up aliens and going on multiverse adventures, the friendly neighborhood spider must finally take care of them again and confront villains and criminals in his own neighborhood.
Daniel Richtman’s rumors would also fit into this, stating that Wilson Fisk, aka Kingpin, could have a bigger role in the sequel. Since the mafia boss portrayed by Vincent D’Onofrio has now officially been transferred to the MCU through his appearances in the Marvel series “Hawkeye” and “Echo”, nothing stands in the way of a possible antagonist role in the latest Spider-Man. blockbuster .
Even if they are of course just rumors and should be treated as such, one thing can be deduced from this very different information and approach: at the moment, those responsible at Sony/Marvel themselves don’t seem to quite know which direction this is going. The Spider franchise should actually evolve. Since there isn’t even a scheduled start date for ‘Spider-Man 4’ yet, it will likely be a while before clarity is given on the direction of the series.
