A new rumor has surfaced suggesting that Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures are working to make ‘Spider-Man 4‘ a groundbreaking team-up adventure. This exciting development reportedly includes the return of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield.
If the rumors are true both the actors will be reprising their iconic roles as Peter Parker, joining forces with Tom Holland‘s Spider-Man.
Tobey Maguire And Andrew Garfield To Play Key Roles In ‘Spider-Man 4’
The enormous success of ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ opened up new possibilities for the Spider-Verse. Moreover, fans were ecstatic to see the trio of Spider-Men on-screen, and it seems the studios want to recreate and even surpass that magic.

Now, after months of speculation, insiders now claim that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield are not just making brief cameos in ‘Spider-Man 4’ but will play a “larger participation” than they had in ‘No Way Home’. Additionally, unlike their previous appearances, which primarily served as nostalgic moments, this time they will actively contribute to the central narrative.
The collaborative efforts of Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige and Sony Pictures head Tom Rothman have reportedly aligned on a shared vision. While Feige initially leaned toward a smaller, character-focused film, Rothman advocated for a grander spectacle. This apparently led to the inclusion of all the spider-men.
According to thecosmiccircus, Marvel and Sony envision this movie to be similar to the team-up dynamic between Deadpool and Wolverine. The film is also rumored to feature a reduced role for Zendaya’s MJ due to her commitments to other projects. To fill the void, a new female lead is reportedly being cast.

Adding to the intrigue, according to DanielRPK, the ‘Queen’s Gambit‘ star Anya Taylor-Joy is rumored to have a significant role in ‘Spider-Man 4’. Though details are scarce, speculation is running wild. Could she be stepping into the shoes of a beloved character like Gwen Stacy, or taking on the Black Cat?

Fans are divided on what role Taylor-Joy might play. Some see her as the perfect choice for Gwen Stacy. Moreover, the actress could bring a fresh perspective to the role. She might also embody Black Cat, the enigmatic anti-hero Felicia Hardy.
Felicity Jones briefly played an early version of the character in ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2’. However, the role never reached its full potential. Taylor-Joy could reprise her role as Magik, from The New Mutants, if the multiverse plays a significant part in the story. No matter which character she might portray, fans are excited about the prospect of her joining the Spider-Man universe.
