Holland announced the sequel on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, finally giving fans the confirmation they’d been waiting for. “It’s happening,” he stated simply but excitedly. “Next summer we start shooting. Everything’s good to go. We’re nearly there. It’s super exciting; I can’t wait,” he added.
Additionally, while Marvel Studios had hinted at the possibility of a fourth Spider-Man film for some time, Holland’s statement marked the first definitive word on the project’s progress. However, no concrete details about the plot have been revealed.
Holland’s comments and past interviews suggest that the movie will pick up from the end of ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home.’ The actor previously mentioned that the script “lit a fire in him” and expressed his hope to see Miles Morales, the protagonist of ‘Into the Spider-Verse,’ join the MCU. Moreover, he wished to mentor the Miles Morales actor like Robert Downey Jr. mentored him.
Fans Speculate On Who Madelyn Cline Could Play In ‘Spider-Man 4’
The news of Cline’s potential casting has sparked widespread discussion among fans about which character she might portray. Theories range from iconic love interests to formidable anti-heroes. One of the most popular guesses is that Cline could take on the role of Felicia Hardy, also known as Black Cat.

This character is known for being a cat burglar with a complicated romantic history with Spider-Man. Fans believe she could embody Felicia’s confidence and charm with ease. Another strong contender in the fan theories is Gwen Stacy, a classic character in Spider-Man lore.
Although Gwen has appeared in previous Spider-Man adaptations, her inclusion in the MCU would be new territory. “Well, we already know she is a Gwen fan,” one fan wrote online, referring to how Cline once dressed up as a Gwen Stacy variant for Halloween. “So maybe she’s playing the MCU’s Gwen Stacy.”
This detail has fueled speculation that Cline might bring a new version of the character to life. Of course, there is also the possibility that she could be cast as a different character entirely, perhaps someone less well-known. Marvel is known for weaving unexpected characters into its narratives, so Cline’s role could be of anyone.
