Tom Holland's Return to the MCU for Spider-Man 4

Tom Holland and Zendaya's Heartwarming Rewatch of Spider-Man: Homecoming

Tom Holland and Zendaya continue to rewatch Spider-Man: Homecoming, their first Marvel Cinematic Universe Spider-Man film, for a heartwarming reason, as revealed by the Peter Parker actor. Holland will soon return as the wall-crawler for the MCU's Spider-Man 4. While Zendaya's MJ might not be in the film, given her status in Spider-Man: No Way Home's ending, which would mark the first of the MCU Spider-Man movies without her, the actress continues to share a deep bond with the franchise, as does Holland. Speaking to Extra, Holland revealed that he and Zendaya have a habit of rewatching Spider-Man: Homecoming to 'reminisce about being 19.' Spider-Man: Homecoming reviews were great when the movie came out, making Peter Parker's first MCU movie an instant classic. The movie's high school setting was refreshing among the rest of the MCU heroes. Now, Holland reveals that he and Zendaya rewatch Spider-Man: Homecoming 'every now and then' to remember that moment of their lives 'and making those movies again.' Check out the full quote: "Zendaya and I will, every now and then, watch 'Spider-Man 1' and reminisce about being 19 and making those movies again. I love those movies, and I love savoring those moments, so I try not to watch them as often as I would maybe like to because it’s so special. It's such a luxury, such a gift to be able to sit down and sort of relive your youth. I wouldn’t be the man I am today without that job."

What Tom Holland’s Spider-Man Future May Hold

Holland is returning as Peter Parker for the MCU's Spider-Man 4. The movie currently has no release date set, with work on the MCU's next Spider-Man adventure being resumed after the 2023 Hollywood strikes. While the movie has no script, the name of director Drew Goddard has come up in recent rumors as a possible replacement for MCU Spider-Man trilogy director Jon Watts. Goddard would be a fantastic pick for Spider-Man 4, as the movie is also rumored to continue a major storyline that Marvel is setting up across multiple projects. Echo's season finale teased that Vincent D'Onofrio's Wilson Fisk will become the Mayor of New York City, which should be a major plot point of Daredevil: Born Again. In the comics, Kingpin started a hunt for NYC's heroes, even assembling his own team of supervillains to track down Daredevil, Spider-Man, the Punisher, and others. Daredevil: Born Again could begin the setup for that major event, which is rumored to be the plot of Holland's Spider-Man 4. That would align with the talk about Goddard helming the movie, as he was responsible for creating Netflix's Daredevil series. Spider-Man: No Way Home was a major multiverse story that ended with the perfect setup for a more mature, street-level story for Spider-Man 4. Based on the MCU rumors and how Kingpin's story is shaping up, it seems like Spider-Man 4 could pay that off, going for a completely different tone from Spider-Man: Homecoming, which shows how much Holland's Peter has grown.

A Major Villain Has Been Set Up For Spider-Man 4

A major villain has been set up for Spider-Man 4, and it's creating a buzz among fans. The potential storyline for the new movie has fans speculating about the return of Vincent D'Onofrio's Wilson Fisk, also known as Kingpin. The Daredevil: Born Again storyline, which could be the plot for Spider-Man 4, sets the stage for Kingpin to become the Mayor of New York City, leading to a hunt for the city's heroes. This storyline from the comics could pave the way for a more mature, street-level story for Spider-Man 4, aligning with the rumors about director Drew Goddard helming the movie. With the groundwork laid in Spider-Man: No Way Home and the potential return of Kingpin, it seems like Spider-Man 4 is gearing up to explore a completely different tone and direction, showcasing a more evolved and developed Peter Parker, which will undoubtedly excite fans of the MCU and the Spider-Man franchise.
