We think 'Spider-Man 4' might feature multiple Peter Parkers
The much-anticipated Spider-Man 4 is finally gaining momentum at Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures, with the recent reports of Shang-Chi director Destin Daniel Cretton taking the reins. The film is set to see Tom Holland return as the web-slinging hero, with production expected to commence early next year. Fans are now speculating about the potential plot and character inclusions in this upcoming installment.
Will 'Spider-Man 4' continue the trend of MCU crossovers?
Each Spider-Man film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has featured a significant character from the franchise, and it's likely that Spider-Man 4 will follow suit. With Cretton at the helm, fans are speculating that Simu Liu's Shang-Chi could make an appearance, given the characters' shared history in Marvel Comics. However, the most intriguing theory involves the possible inclusion of a previous Spider-Man star.
Could Andrew Garfield's Peter Parker return in 'Spider-Man 4?'
Given the upcoming two-part Avengers saga directed by the Russo Brothers, which includes Avengers: Secret Wars, fans are speculating about a potential multiverse scenario in Spider-Man 4. This theory suggests Holland's Peter Parker could seek assistance from his counterparts in alternate universes since they are already acquainted after the third film. One such counterpart could be Andrew Garfield's iteration of the character. Being the only Spider-Man without a solid trilogy, his character still has unfinished business, reported ComicBook.
Garfield's recent comments fuel speculation about his return
Fueling this speculation, Garfield recently commented on the limitless possibilities for the character's future at the Toronto Film Festival. "I think it's kind of endless, what can be done with that character. Not that we should; not that we will, but I think you can always find another story to tell," he said. This statement has left fans wondering if his version of Parker could make a comeback in Spider-Man 4.
