Spider-Man 3 stars Tom Holland, Zendaya, and Jacob Batalon trolled Marvel fans yesterday by “revealing” a trio of possible titles for the upcoming movie. Now, Marvel has finally set the record straight by unveiling the film’s official name: Spider-Man: No Way Home. On Tuesday, the actors each posted first-look images from the upcoming Spider-Man: Far From Home follow-up along with what they claimed was the film’s title. Holland (Spider-Man/Peter Parker) shared Spider-Man: Phone Home, Zendaya (MJ) posted Spider-Man: Home Slice, and Batalon (Ned Leeds) teased Spider-Man: Home-Wrecker. It turns out while the preview images were indeed real, those movie titles were misdirects. In a new video posted by Marvel, Holland walks out of director Jon Watts’ office to inform his castmates they’d been g...
The live-action Spider-Verse can’t be stopped. It’s self-sustaining now. Alfred Molina is officially reprising his Doctor Octopus role from 2004’s classic Spider-Man 2 in Marvel’s upcoming third Spider-Man film (via The Hollywood Reporter). Molina turned in a fan-favorite performance as Dr. Otto Octavius to face Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man in the second entry in Sam Raimi’s trilogy. That film is widely considered one of the best superhero movies of all time. Now, Molina will strap on the mechanical arms once more to face off against Tom Holland’s Spidey in the hero’s third solo Marvel Cinematic Universe adventure. The addition of another villain from a past series adds further confirmation that Spider-Man 3 is going to be a reality-hopping affair. Marvel blew the doors off the Spider-Verse ...
It’s becoming increasingly evidence that Spider-Man 3 is to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as The Flash is to the DC Extended Universe. We got our first real hint this was coming when it was revealed earlier this month that Jamie Foxx would be reprising his role as Electro from the non-MCU The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Now, another MCU character getting caught the tangled web of Spider-Man 3 all but confirms it, as Benedict Cumberbatch is reportedly appearing as Doctor Strange. As The Hollywood Reporter notes, Cumberbatch’s Strange will fill the mentor/adult role held by Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark and Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury in the previous MCU Spidey films, Homecoming and Far From Home, respectively. But considering the upcoming Doctor Strange standalone sequel is enti...
In news that will truly shock Marvel fans, The Hollywood Reporter has it that Jamie Foxx is in final negotiations to reprise his The Amazing Spider-Man 2 role of Electro in the upcoming Spider-Man 3. Foxx portrayed the classic villain six years ago in the second and final movie featuring Andrew Garfield in Spidey’s webs. While the film was the ninth-highest-grossing release of 2014, its $709 million box office take remains the lowest of any Spider-Man movie to date, and it was generally panned by critics and fans alike. In fact, it was so poorly received that Sony abandoned plans for more sequels and a Sinister Six spinoff in favor of its now legendary deal with Marvel Studios bringing Spider-Man to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Infamously, Sony attempted to reclaim the web-head last summ...
