Spider-Man: No Way Home is being credited with saving theaters, and while it's too soon to say whether that will earn the movie an Oscar nomination, that's the hope of many fans. Regardless of awards recognition, the Marvel Studios/Sony Pictures threequel has been a critical and commercial hit, hence why star Tom Holland isn't sweating a potential nod at the Academy Awards.
"It would be a huge honor for it to be nominated for an Oscar," the actor recently admitted to Variety. "But I think I can speak on behalf of everyone at Marvel and Sony and particularly [director] Jon Watts, the fan reaction that we’ve received - the love and support - is enough."
Later in the conversation, Holland was asked about the possibility of reuniting with Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire following their team-up in Spider-Man: No Way Home.
"It was one of those things - it was an idea for a long time and an idea that always seemed impossible," he started. "Could it happen? Of course it could happen. We’ve done it once before. Will it happen? I don’t know." There have been plenty of rumours suggesting Sony is keen to work with Maguire and Garfield again, with some claiming they'll eventually return for Secret Wars.
As beloved as Maguire's wall-crawler was, it's Garfield the vast majority of fans are hoping will make his return as Peter Parker. #MakeTASM3 continues to trend on social media, and the hope is that his Amazing Spider-Man is going to cross paths with Tom Hardy's Eddie Brock/Venom at some point.
