Spider man 3 (Image Credit: Marvel Studios/Sony) The Three Characters We'll Surely Be Back For At the moment, we only know a few details about the film's cast for sure. Tom Holland will return as Peter Parker, Jacob Batalon will return as Peter Ned's friend and Zendaya will return as MJ; all three were seen in the first images of No Way Home (see above). You will also see Marisa Tomei playing Aunt May. Also, Tony Revolori is set to reprise his role as Flash Thompson. Other than that, we are in rumor and leak territory. Many characters from the MCU and previous Spider-Man projects are set to return, which is why the anticipation for Spider-Man: No Way Home is so high. A report has suggested that Benedict Cumberbatch will reprise his role as Doctor Strange in the upcoming film, and at Disney's Investor Day in 2020, Marvel's Kevin Feige confirmed that the events of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness would be tied to the third Spider. -Man movie. We also know that Jamie Foxx will return as The Amazing Spider-Man 2 villain Electro in Spider-Man: No Way Home, thanks to a since-deleted Instagram post. The Hollywood Reporter says Alfred Molina will also return as Spider-Man 2 villain Otto Octavius, after GWW reported that Molina was spotted on set. Doctor Octopus from Spider-Man 2 (Image credit: Sony Pictures) How will these villains end up in Peter Parker's reality? Or vice versa? This is the great mystery we are waiting to unpack. The family enemies are rumored to return. Les rumeurs sont allées plus loin que cela, with a rapport by Collider suggesting that the former actors of Spider-Man Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield play a role in the film, suggesting a lot of multiverse teams - Spider-Verse in live-action , could be . However, these claims have since been refuted by Tom Holland. Finally, for now, we've seen rumors that Charlie Cox will reprise his role as Daredevil from the Netflix series of the same name. The original report from Murphy's Multiverse has been corroborated by comicbook.com, which said that he was apparently seen on the set of the film. We'll have to wait and see with that, though a February 2021 casting call suggested an audience scene was in the works. Spider-Man to surprise (Image credit: Sony Pictures) It's unclear what the canon status of the Daredevil TV show is at this point, though we wouldn't be opposed to parts of the series being picked up for the MCU. How is Spidey going to handle all of this?

Spider-Man: No Way Home story details (and rumors)

There is no official plot synopsis for Spider-Man: No Way Home at this time, so everything that follows is a guess based on pre-existing information. The third Spider-Man movie will almost certainly deal with the aftermath of the ending of Spider-Man: Far From Home, where Spidey was basically accused of being a drone-controlling terrorist by Mysterio, and J. Jonah Jameson made an appearance to reveal superhero. secret identity as Peter Parker. At the moment, we can only speculate on how this will play out on screen, but the effect on Peter's life will likely be at the heart of this film's plot. After Peter revealed his identity in Marvel Comics' Civil War series, powerful magic was used to make everyone forget, so there is speculation that Doctor Strange could do something similar to help him out of his public identity predicament. in the MCU. We'll have to wait to see that though, but at least a connection between No Way Home and the second Doctor Strange movie has been confirmed. Also, the rumor that a lot of Spidey villains are coming into the picture may be setting up the movie for a Sinister Six story, essentially a team of enemies to give Peter a tougher time. Assuming Electro and Doc Ock make the cut, Adrian Toomes' Vulture would make a lot of sense, as would Mysterio if he managed to fake his death and survive outside the home. There are four of them: the Scorpion, aka Mac Gargan (played by Michael Mando) already exists in the MCU as well, minus his alter ego. That makes five. We saw Michael Keaton appear in the trailer for Morbius, the non-MCU Spider-Man spinoff. Could Jared Leto's character be the sixth? Or could he be someone else? Again, this is just speculation, but a team-up of villains seems plausible to us, based on what we've heard about the cast so far. Sony has also been trying to bring the Sinister Six to the big screen for a long time, with Drew Goddard once signing on to direct a character-based movie. Meanwhile, the headline ``No Way Home'' probably refers to Peter having to live his life on the go, unable to protect his friends or family now that his identity is revealed.

What do we want to see from Spider-Man: No Way Home?

Here's our wish list for the third Spider-Man MCU movie. Balancing the bad guys If you've read our breakdown of everything we know and everything that's been leaked about Spider-Man: No Way Home, you might get some flashbacks. Spider-Man 3, directed by Sam Raimi since 2007, was known to include a similar cast of characters, especially on the villain side, much to the scorn of fans and critics alike. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 suffered from the same problem years later. We hope this Spider-Man movie has learned from these past mistakes and manages to integrate his many enemies without losing the thread of the story. Spider-Verse Links Into the Spider-Verse is one of the best superhero movies ever made, rightfully winning an Oscar for Best Animated Feature in 2019. It seems likely that Sony will want to include its various Spider-Men in it. period, and it would be great if No Way Home could connect the dots in a post-credits sequence. Imagine No Way Home ended with a lively Tom Holland teaming up with Miles Morales... Spider-Men and Spider-Verse Women (Image credit: Sony Pictures) Daredevil joins the MCU again Marvel Studios has two choices with Daredevil: keep the Charlie Cox Netflix version of the character, or wait a bit and tweak him. Our preference is that they stick with Cox - the film doesn't need to explore his baggage from the Netflix show, but just having him in the MCU would be a nice love letter to fans of this series.
