Present at the Sands International Film Festival in St Andrews, Scotland, Tom Holland shared some reassuring news regarding the highly anticipated Spider-Man 4.
Three years after the nostalgic festival that was No Way Home, its sequel Spider-Man 4 is eagerly desired. However, she remembers us fondly through the main person concerned: Tom Holland, the latest interpreter of Peter Parker.
An even more central role for Tom Holland in Spider-Man 4
Also present at the Sands International Film Festival in St Andrews, Deadline was able to speak for a few moments with Tom Holland regarding Spider-Man 4. After three years of waiting and several strikes that shook Hollywood, the long-awaited sequel would finally begin to weave its web, but fans will apparently have to be patient. “ The short answer is that I will always want to make Spider-Man movies. I owe my life and my career to this superhero “.
Next comes a longer and more complicated answer, explained by Tom Holland. “ We have the best team in the business thinking about what the story could be for Spider-Man 4. But until we find it, we have a legacy to protect. The third film was so special on so many levels that we have to make sure we get it right. This is the first time I’ve been part of the creative process so early. For now I’m just watching and learning, but I’m having a lot of fun. Like I said, everyone wants Spider-Man 4 to see the light of day. We just want to make sure we don’t do too much and spread ourselves too thin. “.
We must protect the SpiderVerse
Tom Holland here somewhere alludes to two points. The first is that the actor is known for his gaffes when it comes to spoiling elements of the MCU. It seems that the teams now believe he has calmed down enough to trust him with the creative process of the upcoming Spider-Man 4 film. The second point is the somewhat complicated state in which the films surrounding the SpiderVerse currently find themselves. Recent examples like Venom 2 or Madame Web have clearly not been unanimously accepted.
The teams behind Spider-Man 4 therefore want to ensure that the film will live up to high expectations after a very popular No Way Home. Still, its sequel is indeed on the way. However, don’t expect to see Tom Holland in the famous costume anytime soon. There is also no indication yet whether Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield will also return in their respective combinations. As Ben Parker often says: “ With great power comes great responsibility… “.
