An important update for Spider-Man 4 has fans hopeful for the sequel, provided it doesn’t have anything to do with the multiverse of course…
Listen, Spider-Man: No Way Home was fantastic as have been the Spider-Verse films, but the next film to star Tom Holland really needs to be a street-level, friendly-neighbourhood type of film.
That being said I still wouldn’t mind seeing the wall-crawler crossover with Tom Hardy’s Venom.

While details on the plot for the next film are slim, probably because it’s still in the early-planning phase, an important update for the upcoming blockbuster is its director.
Jon Watts, who’s directed the last three Spider-Man films for Marvel is not attached to the project, and recently explained why in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
He said, "That [No Way Home] was such a specific moment in time, and the reaction to that movie was just so unbelievable," explaining he came to the realisation that, "It’s never going to be like this, ever again."
The director had his start in indie films before getting his big-break with Spider-Man: Homecoming.
Fans of the series are actually pleased with this decision though, not because they think Jon Watts is a bad director, but because it’s time for a new face.
“I’ll always believe Jon not returning is best. The next trilogy needs to be new and for it to be new it has to get a new director,” said one fan in a Reddit thread.
“He was such an inexperienced director, I can see why he would rather leave on a high note,” added another.
The next Spider-Man film in the MCU is set to release between Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, so unless it’s set in the past, it looks like the next film will indeed be another multiverse story.
