While every Marvel Sudios release tends to warrant rampant speculation, no film has led to more wild fan speculation than the upcoming Spider-Man: No Way Home, which has seen some of the craziest theories - some of which may be true - gain massive traction across the interwebs.
One of the biggest, of course, is that Charlie Cox will make his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut as Matt Murdock in the film and serve as Peter Parker's (Tom Holland) lawyer. Cox recently being confirmed to return as Daredevil in the MCU has only added fuel to the fire, and we'll all find out for sure if he'll step in to save our friendly neighborhood wall-crawler in less than a week.
Until this past week, no official source had even entertained the idea of Matt Murdock/Daredevil showing up, but since Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige himself confirmed Cox's return, Marvel has released an official promo video with stars Tom Holland, Zendaya, and Jacob Batalon addressing the potentially game-changing rumor, among other things.
Let's just say their reactions may be kind of telling...
Tom Holland will headline the feature with a confirmed supporting cast that will consist of Zendaya as MJ, Jacob Batalon as Ned Leeds, Marisa Tomei as Aunt May, Tony Revolori as Flash Thompson, Angourie Rice as Betty Brant, Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan, Hannibal Buress as Coach Wilson, Martin Starr as Mr. Harrington, J.B. Smoove as Mr. Dell, J.K. Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson, Benedict Wong as Master Wong, and Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange.
Plus, Willem Dafoe (Green Goblin), Alfred Molina (Doctor Octopus), Jamie Foxx (Electro), Thomas Haden Church (Sandman), and Rhys Ifans (Lizard) will all return as villains from the earlier Spider-Man films.
Additionally, Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, and Charlie Cox have all been heavily rumored to reprise their roles from the previous Spider-Man movies and the Daredevil TV series, respectively, although none of them have officially been confirmed just yet.
Spider-Man: No Way Home is set to swing into theaters worldwide on December 17.
