There are endless possibilities for what’s to come in the next chapter of Tom Holland’s Spider-Man franchise. Naturally, there are a ton of theories and speculations making their rounds on the Internet and almost every single one of them seems like a great idea. As of now, there are no official confirmations on what’s next for Tom Holland’s Peter Parker after the groundbreaking Spider-Man 4: No Way Home.
While we don’t know when Spider-Man 4 will be ready to hit the theatres, we are hoping that it will also be another masterpiece, just like its three predecessors. Recently, a few rumors about Spider-Man 4 have caught fans’ attention and if they are true, the film is going to be quite interesting, to say the least.
Exciting Rumors about Tom Holland’s Spider-Man 4
Back in 2023, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige revealed that the story for Spider-Man 4 was being written down and this sent fans of Tom Holland’s Spider-Man into a frenzy. While there are no updates about the film yet, some rumors are circulating on X that have fans super excited.
For starters, the rumors suggest that there will be no changes made to Peter’s last spidey suit and fans will get to see it once again in its full glory. However, the next rumor will have you all hyped up for the fourth installment in the franchise. According to the user, Spider-Man 4 will see Peter Parker fighting Kingpin, who will be the main antagonist of the film.
Kingpin is the Mayor of NYC as well as one of the most overpowered criminals in the city. The crime boss has influence all over NYC and while he does not have any superpowers to his name, his cunning mind and ruthless personality are enough to perplex his enemies. If Kingpin a.k.a. Wilson Fisk does end up becoming Peter’s main rival in the upcoming film, it will mean that Spider-Man 4 will have a street-level story, just like the fans want.
Some Spider-Man 4 Rumors Enrage Fans
Now that the exciting rumors are out of the way, we should probably address those that have fans seething with anger. As per the rumors, the script for the film is currently being made and Sony is trying to push for yet another multiverse project. Needless to say, fans are not happy as they are hoping for Spider-Man 4 to be a grounded film that solely focuses on Holland’s Spider-Man and his quests to save New York City from dangerous villains.
Check out what disappointed fans have to say about this rumor:
I swear if Sony tries to make Spider-Man 4 another Multiverse movie we should Boycott their Sony Movies like when they took Spider-Man outta the MCU 5 years ago

Sony is a joke. Hopefully sanity prevails and we get a street level story

After Morbius and now Madam Web, Sony needs to take a step back and give Feige full creative control.

On the contrary, both Marvel Studios and Holland are apparently trying to show a street-level story in Spider-Man 4 that will eventually lead to the events of Avengers: The Kang Dynasty. Also, while Sony is rumored to be wanting a mid-2025 release, Holland and Marvel Studios want to wait all the way until 2026.
Would you want a multiverse storyline again or do you want Holland to be the main attraction of the film?
Avengers: The Kang Dynasty is set to release on May 01, 2026.
