How Many Spider-Men Are We Going to See in ‘Spider-Man 4’?

by

As a seasoned gamer who has spent countless hours navigating the digital realms of Marvel and Sony’s Spider-Man universes, I must say that the prospect of seeing Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield return to their iconic roles is nothing short of exhilarating.

It’s common knowledge that Sony holds the rights to the Spider-Man character, resulting in his unique out-of-universe backstory being reflected in his MCU appearances. Initially, the original Spider-Man movies, featuring Andrew Garfield, had no connection to any MCU projects. However, when Tom Holland took on the role, Sony and Marvel collaborated to produce three films with him as the lead character.

In the third film among them, “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” not only did we witness the reappearance of Tobey Maguire’s and Andrew Garfield’s Spiderman characters, but also a unification of all three Spidermen in a multiverse tale. This storyline brought back many past enemies of Spiderman as well. The movie was hugely popular, and given the excitement it generated, fans are clamoring for more similar stories in the future.

In this write-up, let’s delve into the existing gossip and data we’ve gathered regarding the forthcoming Spider-Man 4. Here, we will explore if there’s a possibility that Tobey and Andrew could return to their iconic roles in the upcoming movie.

It’s common knowledge that Destin Daniel Cretton, who directed Shang-Chi, has officially been tapped as the director for Spider-Man 4, with whispers suggesting that filming will commence early in the next year. Given the ending of No Way Home, Peter Parker finds himself in a challenging predicament, and it’s yet to be revealed how Marvel plans to navigate this situation moving forward.

Despite Tom Holland’s role yet to be fully revealed, there’s speculation among fans about whether Andrew Garfield and Toby Maguire might reprise their roles in the upcoming film. Though they aren’t currently part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, fans are sensing that with Spider-Man 4 being another multiverse movie, at least one of these two could potentially return.

Recently, it’s been speculated that if the fourth Spider-Man film is set for release in 2026 and follows the events of Doomsday, Marvel might consider reuniting Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield for another movie. This theory holds water if Doctor Doom sends the heroes to Battleworld post-Doomsday, which seems probable given the trajectory of the comic book storyline.

It’s unclear how Marvel intends to pull it off, but we strongly believe that Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man deserves another chance, given there’s still much of his story left untold and personal battles to be addressed. A potential film where both Spidey characters (Holland and Garfield) collaborate during difficult situations seems like a fitting choice. Moreover, establishing a mentor-student dynamic, reminiscent of the SpiderVerse films and Spider-Man video games, could make for an interesting twist. Garfield himself has expressed this sentiment recently.

It seems there’s an abundance of possibilities when it comes to developing that character. While we may not necessarily do so, or even plan to, I believe there’s always room for more stories to be spun around them.

Regarding Tobey, he’s shared his complete tale, and although it’s tempting to have him appear in another film, we believe that Marvel and Sony might want to focus on Garfield’s Spider-Man character for the upcoming fourth movie instead.
