Spider-Man 2021 Movie - Let's Go All Multiverse

I think what I'm gonna post here will be less of a shocker and more of an inevitability. Also don't be surprised if this blog is edited in the next week or so when more information surfaces. 


It's safe to say that in the space of four years and several appearances in the MCU that Tom Holland has made the role of Spider Man his own and with his first two solo outings being overall crowd pleasers, it's probably the right time for his third outing, currently filming in Atlanta to really up the ante. Basically, it's time for the multiverse.

Rumours have been spilling for a while that Holland's upcoming third movie would delve into it's own Spider Verse and this week, that was probably confirmed. It seems that both Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield will be joining Tom Holland for the upcoming movie but they won't be alone. Nope, along with two other Spidermen, it's also been confirmed that Kirsten Dunst and Emma Stone will be reprising their roles as Mary Jane Watson and Gwen Stacey respectively.


The returns of Maguire, Garfield, Dunst and Stone come after it was also revealed that Jamie Foxx and Alfred Molina would also be reprising their roles as Electro and Doc Octopus respectively. It seems that this current movie might not only be exploring the multiverse (along with WandaVision and the upcoming Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness) but rumours are rife that this movie may also be giving Spidey fans the Sinister Six as several other villains (yet to be confirmed) will factor into the film. 


Other confirmed returns (as well as Holland's own cast, including Zendeya as MJ) are Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange along with Charlie Cox's Daredevil. The latter's return has especially generated excitement as many were disappointed when Netflix cancelled his show back in 2018. In the film though it seems like Cox's Matt Murdock will be representing Peter Parker in court but I don't doubt we'll get to see him briefly as Daredevil in the movie. There's also been rumours of Deadpool showing up but that hasn't been confirmed yet. Either way, this is exciting stuff.
