When Will Spider-Man 4 Release? Will Tom Holland Return for Spider-Man 4?

While not yet officially announced, Tom Holland’s Spider-Man 4 is about as sure a thing as they come in the comic book movie world.

Holland’s web-head endeared audiences over his first MCU Spidey trilogy, with the character leaving off where a lot of wall-crawling stories start, as Holland’s Peter Parker truly starts his journey as the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

Spider-Man: No Way Home blew the doors open for Spidey storytelling in the MCU, with but fans should expect even more fun in the upcoming sequel.

When Will Spider-Man 4 Release?

No official release date has been revealed for Spider-Man 4 as of yet, but it is almost surely coming.

A June 2023 report from Deadline revealed the first hints at where the wall-crawler’s fourth film could fall on the Sony Pictures and Marvel slate. Sony unveiled two dates for unannounced projects falling on November 8, 2024, and June 27, 2025.

While it is expected Venom 3 will take that November 2024 date, there is a strong likelihood that Spider-Man 4 comes to theaters in June 2025.

Of course, all that could change, with the ongoing writers’ and actors’ strikes shaking things up in Hollywood, however.

Sony Pictures and Spidey film producer Amy Pascal commented on how the strikes will impact Spider-Man 4, saying, “Are we going to make another movie? Of course, we are,” but “nobody is working” on the project during the labor dispute:

“Are we going to make another movie? Of course, we are. We’re in the process, but the writers strike, nobody is working during the strike. We’re all being supporters and whenever they get themselves together, we’ll get started.”

When asked about any specific information about the upcoming sequel, Pascal added “If I told you, I’d have to kill you.”

With Tom Holland taking a bit of a break from acting (something that the actor said should not take too long), and Spider-Man 4’s lack of a director, there is still plenty of work to do before the Spidey sequel can get in front of cameras, so if it were to push past that June 2025 date, it would not be all that surprising.

Development has at least started on the film, so the ball is rolling. In an interview with The New York Times, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige let slip that they are ” “actively beginning to develop where the story heads next:”

“Yes, we’re actively beginning to develop where the story heads next, which I only say outright because I don’t want fans to go through any separation trauma like what happened after ‘Far From Home.’ That will not be occurring this time.”

The studio executive also has made note that the movie is in the midst of being written, however, work has been paused due to the strikes in Hollywood.

Will Tom Holland Return for Spider-Man 4?

Coming off of Spider-Man: No Way Home Tom Holland going forward as the MCU’s Spider-Man was not a certainty; however, he has been since to return as the iconic wall-crawler.

It has been written that not only will Tom Holland appear in Spider-Man 4, but a whole new MCU Spidey trilogy, as he continues to be a big part of the super-powered franchise.

In the fall of 2022, various leakers reported a “New Tom Holland deal [was] comin’ right up,” being the first indication the actor would be back.

Holland himself has since hyped up Spider-Man 4, saying the sequel is “looking pretty good” with “some stuff going on” that he’s “excited about.”

The Marvel actor continued, remarking he would be “the luckiest kid alive” if he played Spider-Man for the rest of his life:

“I feel like my agents and I have navigated the industry in a really good way over the last 10 years. But that said, if I just play Spider-Man for the rest of my life, I’d still be the luckiest kid alive. So there’s no complaints from me here.”
