3 More 'Spider-Man' Movies Produced By Marvel Are In The Pipeline, Sony Confirms

This is the best time to be alive if you're a Spider-Man fan. There's a bunch of exciting movies in the pipeline. First, we'll get to see Tom Holland return to play Peter Parker yet again in the upcoming Spider-Man: No Way Home. The movie is a follow-up to 2019's Spider-Man: Far From Home.

There's been much speculation that this film will end the working arrangement between Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios and bring Tom Holland's time playing Peter Parker to a close. But producer Amy Pascal says the 25-year-old star will continue to play the web-slinging hero. Sony Pictures has plans to work with Marvel Studios on more Spider-Man films that will star Holland.

"This is not the last movie that we are going to make with Marvel – [this is not] the last Spider-Man movie," said Pascal, a former Sony Pictures executive, per Fandango. "We are getting ready to make the next Spider-Man movie with Tom Holland and Marvel. We're thinking of this as three films, and now we're going to go onto the next three. This is not the last of our MCU movies."

According to Comic Book, it was hinted that the star would return in the post-credits scene in Venom: Let There Be Carnage, teasing a more tightly connected Spider-Man film universe. The upcoming Spider-Man: No Way Home is a multiversal adventure, meaning Spider-Man's cinematic future could take any form. In the trailer, we see that Peter enlists help from Doctor Strange to change the course of history. But what happens is that the two unintentionally break open the multiverse, and villains from alternate realities start coming after Peter, and it is absolute chaos.

But for fans, this is an exciting overlap of characters. Several actors will come back as villains, and this includes Jamie Foxx as Electro, Alfred Molina as Doctor Octopus, Willem Dafoe as the Green Goblin, Thomas Haden Church as Sandman, and Rhys Ifans as the Lizard. The movie stars Tom Holland as Spider-Man, with Zendaya as MJ, Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange, Jacob Batalon as Ned, Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan, Marisa Tomei as Aunt May, J. B. Smoove as Julius Dell, and Benedict Wong as Wong.

Speaking with Entertainment Weekly in October, Holland previously said the film could likely be the "conclusion" to the Homecoming trilogy. "I think if we were lucky enough to dive into these characters again, you'd be seeing a very different version. It would no longer be the Homecoming trilogy," Holland said. "We would give it some time and try to build something different and tonally change the films. Whether that happens or not, I don't know," Holland added. "But we were definitely treating [No Way Home] like it was coming to an end, and it felt like it."

Spider-Man: No Way Home will be out in theaters on December 17.
