SPIDER-MAN 4: Andrew Garfield Addresses Rumors He'll Return In Marvel Studios' NO WAY HOME Sequel

With speculation running rampant that we'll see Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire in Spider-Man 4, The Amazing Spider-Man star has broken his silence on the online rumours. Find his comments in full here!

Rumours continue to swirl about Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures' plans for Spider-Man 4. We initially heard the idea was to tell a street-level story revolving around Peter Parker and Daredevil teaming up to battle Mayor Wilson Fisk as he looks to clamp down on New York's vigilantes. 

Unfortunately, delays caused by last year's WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes now mean it's likely the Spider-Man: No Way Home sequel will be released between Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars

Why is that an issue? Well, if the former ends with the creation of Battleworld, that story revolving around the Kingpin of Crime no longer works in a Multiversal setting. As a result, Sony may have gotten its wish to reunite Tom Holland with Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield for another epic team-up. To be fair, that wouldn't be a bad thing either!

IndieWire recently caught up with the latter and asked The Amazing Spider-Man star whether there's any truth to the rumours. 

"I mean, like the internet is a big place," Garfield responded. "I think there’s a lot of people who will just say anything to get clicks. So you might have been duped, I’m afraid."

Oh, he's so the werewolf again, isn't he? 

In 2022, Garfield confirmed he'd be open to playing Spider-Man again if the circumstances were right. "I mean, yes, definitely open to something if it felt right. Peter and Spider-Man, those characters are all about service, to the greater good and the many. He’s a working-class boy from Queens that knows struggle and loss and is deeply empathetic."

"I would try to borrow Peter Parker’s ethical framework in that, if there was an opportunity to step back in and tell more of that story, I would have to feel very sure and certain in myself."

An MCU return still seems far more likely than The Amazing Spider-Man 3 and there's been nothing to suggest this wall-crawler is part of the same world as the Venom and Kraven the Hunter franchises, for example. 

Reflecting on his No Way Home experience, Garfield has also said, "I snuck into a theater on opening night and just watched with my baseball cap on and my mask. In fact, I was also with Tobey, me and Tobey snuck into a theater together and no one knew we were there. It was just a really beautiful thing to share together."

Spider-Man 4 doesn't have a confirmed release date but is in the works. Recently, Holland was spotted visiting Amy Pascal's office on the Universal lot, sparking speculation they may have been meeting to discuss Spidey's future.

Regardless of whether he might be telling the truth or not , I don’t buy anything he’s gonna say anymore after last time lol.

Also while I liked his and Tobey’s inclusion last time , I still don’t want this and hope the next time the Spidey’s meet up is Secret Wars and that’s it.

I hope they just confirm his and Tobey's return, but Andrew just keeps denying it as part of the promo tour.

And I rather see Spider-Man 4 be Spider-Verse set on Battleworld. It's probably being released between the Avengers movies, so might as well play into the multiverse angle.

The Brother dynamic was cool, but I hope Holland can shine on his own again in the next Spider-Man film. Hopefully, Garfleid will just get his own Spider-Man project again one day or come in for another MCU project.

Anyone remember when Garfield was notoriously bad about hiding his giddyness anytime the next sequel (No Way Home) was mentioned, all while denying his involvement?

I think it can all work out with all 3 Spideys.

Doomsday: Multiversal MCU film that may or may not include all 3 Spideys which ends with everyone being on their home Earth.

Spidey 4: Street level Spidey in New York fighting Kingpin with Daredevil & Punisher. No Tobey or Andrew. Ends with Spidey Tom & Daredevil getting disappeared.

Secret Wars: The big blow out that ends the multiverse/time travel/variants nonsense. All 3 Spideys and Daredevil in this. Spidey Tobey & Spidey Andrew finally say goodbye for good.

Spidey 5: Withe superheroes all gone, Kingpin has really entrenched and taken hold of New York. The New York heroes will have a lot of work to do here.

Spidey 6: Either Kingpin or Norman Osborn will be stepping up with presidential aspirations. Hoo hah!!

I mean, can we trust Andrew Garfield for anything he says about a possible upcoming role he might have after lying to everyone so perfectly about No Way Home? Lol

No Way Home was the perfect swan song ending for Toney and Andrew. Tobey Peter ended up marrying MJ and Andrew Peter is self healing and has a sense of purpose again. Leave it alone.
