The Spider-Man Homecoming franchise led by Tom Holland has been a successful affair for the Marvel-Sony combined universe. A fourth installment is reportedly in the developing, and as per sources, Netflix’s Daredevil producer Drew Goddard is being considered to direct Spider-Man 4. The last film in the franchise came out in 2021, and it became both critically and commercially successful mainly because of the inclusion of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Men along with the villains in their films and Charlie Cox’s brief cameo as Matt Murdock.
Holland first appeared as Peter Parker in 2016’s Captain America: Civil War, and in 2017, he got his first solo movie. The audience loves the young actor and just can’t wait to catch him by web-slinging here again, especially after the emotional turmoil he went through in the 2021 film. He matured a lot after the incidents of No Way Home, and it is like a new beginning for Peter. Scroll below for more.
