After three Spider-Man movies and three crossover movies set in Marvel Cinematic Universe (Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame), Tom Holland for the first time has no idea what the future has in store for him and his incarnation of the web-slinger.

After Andrew Garfield’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2 wasn’t as successful as Sony wanted, The Amazing Spider-Man 3 was put on ice and Kevin Feige jumped in with his Marvel Studios, closing a deal with Sony to finally add Spider-Man to Marvel Cinematic Universe. Tom Holland was cast and made his debut in Captain America: Civil War, as Iron Man’s protégé, and the origin story – radioactive spider, blah, blah, blah, great powers, blah, blah, blah, great responsibility – was skipped this time, although there were few callbacks to all those events that defined Spider-Man, but come on, we saw those a million times already.

Now, after five MCU appearances, and the sixth one closing in, what’s next for Holland’s Spider-Man? Producer Amy Pascal reportedly wants more movies, but Tom Holland might disagree.

“Maybe it’s time for me to move on. Maybe what’s best for Spider-Man is that they do a Miles Morales film. If I’m playing Spider-Man after I’m 30, I’ve done something wrong. Since I got cast as Spider-Man, I haven’t really taken a break.”

Well, we definitely agree that it’s time for Miles Morales to get his live-action Spider-Man movie, but we also agree with Pascal that Holland should think very carefully before he decides to hang up the Spider-Man mask. I mean, even if the Miles Morales movie happens, there could still be a chance for Holland to return in a team-up movie. Yes, I definitely got that idea from Insomniac’s Spider-Man video game.

Director Jon Watts described the upcoming Spider-Man: No Way Home as Spider-Man: Endgame, but Endgame doesn’t necessarily mean the end, is it?

Spider-Man: No Way Home is set to hit theaters on December 17, 2021.

Lukas Abramovich is a freelance writer and photo and video editor based in Croatia. He's also a web designer and holds a Master’s degree in general Computer Science from the Faculty of Informatics based in Pula, Croatia. Since 2018, Lukas has worked on several portals writing about movies, TV shows, and video games. He's currently writing articles for two of them: Fiction Horizon and Comic Basics. He also has a YouTube channel in his native language, and the content there is mostly reviewing popular movies and TV shows. Lukas also has an Instagram page where he once used to post fan-made posters he made, which is something he would like to continue working on, as photo and video editing are also some of his passions. Lukas is a big movie lover who is okay with watching any kind of movie. His favorite movie is Michael Curtiz's Casablanca, but he's a loyal follower of Marvel and DC movies, as well as several other blockbuster franchises he's been following for years; Star Wars, Fast & Furious, Mission: Impossible, and James Cameron's Avatar are only some of them. His favorite director is Christopher Nolan, with Quentin Tarantino and Denis Villeneuve as honorable mentions. Lukas is also a big fan of four fantasy multimedia franchises; The Wizarding World, A Song of Ice and Fire, The Witcher, and The Lord of the Rings. He calls them "the four rulers of the fantasy genre." He loves to write about anything spawned from those franchises (books, games, movies...), as well as anything branded with the Marvel or DC logo. Video games and their adaptations are also something he follows faithfully since he's a big fan of story-driven single-player games like Assassin's Creed, The Last of Us, Uncharted, etc. His favorite video game ever is Red Dead Redemption 2.
