The Marvel Cinematic Universe continues to expand, and one of the most anticipated projects is the fourth Spider-Man movie starring Tom Holland. After the success of the initial trilogy, fans of the arachnid hero are eager to know what new adventures await Peter Parker. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige recently confirmed that the script for Spider-Man 4 is in the works and that they expect to have a draft soon. Feige is working alongside Amy Pascal, a producer at Sony Pictures and a key figure in the franchise, to develop the character's next phase on the big screen. “Amy and I are working on it. We have writers who will be delivering a draft to us relatively soon,” Feige commented in an interview with io9.
With a script that could be ready by the end of this year, filming on Spider-Man 4 could begin in 2025. Holland's previous trilogy maintained a steady cadence in its releases - Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017, Spider-Man: Far From Home in 2019 and Spider-Man: No Way Home in 2021. However, this trend has been broken with the fourth installment, as the MCU schedule is fully booked for 2025, making it unlikely that the film will be released before 2026. The cast that will accompany Holland in this new adventure has not yet official, and after the end of Spider-Man: No Way Home, it is possible that the franchise will have a new group of actors.
What is certain is that the next Spider-Man installment could take place before Avengers 5 or between this film and Avengers: Secret Wars. In fact, the arrival of Spider-Man 4 before the new Avengers could open the way for a new story of Peter Parker and his arachnid alter ego.
