Tom Holland Sets High Standards for Spider-Man 4
Tom Holland insists on quality over quantity, stating that he will only commit to Spider-Man 4 if the script and overall project meet his high standards He emphasizes the importance of substance and purpose rather than simply churning out another installment
Tom Holland recently shared an update on the next Spider-Man film and it appears that it is not yet a certainty. He mentioned at a Critics Choice Association press conference that he and his team have been actively discussing what a future Spider-Man movie could entail, but nothing has been finalized.
"I am very protective of the character of Spider-Man. I consider myself fortunate to have worked on a franchise that improved with each installment, and became more successful with each film, which is quite rare. I am determined to preserve his legacy," Holland stated, according to Collider. "Therefore, I will not create another film just for the sake of it. It must be a worthwhile endeavor for the character."
He then expressed his eagerness to reprise his role as Spider-Man if the opportunity presented itself, stating, "If we can work it out, I would be foolish not to don the suit again because Spider-Man means so much to me." He also expressed his love for the character and the people he collaborates with, adding that he would be open to telling another story as long as it's the right one.
Previously, producer Amy Pascal had confirmed that another Spider-Man movie with Holland would be made, but production was delayed due to the Hollywood strikes, which have since concluded.
Holland has also been a supporter of the idea of a Spider-Woman movie, expressing, "We've had three Spider-Mans in a row; we've all been the same. It'd be nice to see something different," in 2021.
Holland portrayed Spider-Man in Homecoming (2017), Far From Home (2019), and No Way Home (2021). These films were produced by Sony in partnership with Marvel, which holds the film rights to Spider-Man.
Sony is also producing the upcoming movie Madame Web, which features Sydney Sweeney as Spider-Woman.
