Now, with his script for The Batman 2 turned in, Tomlin responded to a fan who asked for an update on his Spider-Man 4.<\/p>\n
“Slow and steady wins the race,” he said<\/a>. “There won\u2019t be anything to say about that for a long time (if ever!) because it involves a lot of people and politics and things going right that have nothing to do with me, but I haven\u2019t gotten a ‘no’ yet!”<\/p>\n Could such a film actually happen? Spider-Man is one of the biggest characters in the MCU, and current Spider-Man Tom Holland has found huge success playing the character in the recent films. Holland is currently filming for Spider-Man: Brand New Day<\/a>, which is set for release next year.<\/p>\n But we know Maguire\u2019s Spider-Man has a place in the MCU after his cameo in 2021\u2019s Spider-Man: No Way Home<\/a>, which made nearly $2 billion at the global box office. After the failure of Sony’s Spider-Man Universe<\/a>, perhaps the company will look to the past as it seeks inspiration for future projects.<\/p>\n How to Watch Sony’s Spider-Man Universe in Chronological Order And there\u2019s no real reason two separate Spider-Man films with two different actors could coexist. Indeed, that\u2019s exactly the situation the DC Universe faces, with Robert Pattinson playing Batman in Matt Reeves\u2019 Batman Epic Crime Saga, and DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn on the hunt for an actor to play Batman in his The Brave and the Bold<\/a> movie. With Spider-Man, though, there\u2019s potential for the two to crossover as part of ongoing multiverse shenanigans. It\u2019s hard to see Matt Reeves and James Gunn\u2019s takes on Batman doing that.<\/p>\n<\/a>Could Tobey Maguire return for Spider-Man 4? Photo by Chris Polk\/FilmMagic.<\/p>\n
