Tobey Maguire"s Spider-Man 4 Still Makes A Ton Of Sense Despite Sam Raimi"s Recent Comments

Summary
  • Tobey Maguire and Sam Raimi are open to returning for Spider-Man 4.
  • Sony's Spider-Man Universe is struggling, increasing the potential for Spider-Man 4.
  • Spider-Man: No Way Home's ending sets up a perfect plot for Tobey Maguire's emotional return.
Tobey Maguire could still get the chance to bring his canceled Spider-Man 4 back to life in the future for a few major reasons, even if director Sam Raimi has denied rumors. Maguire starred in a trilogy of Spider-Man films under director Sam Raimi from 2002 to 2007, with the duo's work on the Marvel franchise being held to this day by many fans as the best Spider-Man movies. Despite their successful run with Peter Parker and his supporting cast, Raimi's planned Spider-Man 4 was canceled, with the franchise rebooted as The Amazing Spider-Man with Andrew Garfield as Spider-Man.
In 2021, Maguire would finally come back to the role of Peter Parker in the MCU's Spider-Man: No Way Home. The multiverse allowed all three cinematic Spider-Men — Maguire, Garfield, and Tom Holland — to share the screen. The movie reignited interest in Maguire's canceled Spider-Man 4, with rumors starting to form about the movie happening after years. Recently, Raimi denied that Spider-Man 4 is in the works, saying, "I'm actually not working on it yet... I'm sure I would hear about it if it was in the works." Despite Raimi's comments, the timing is perfect for Spider-Man 4 to be made.
Related Every Way Sam Raimi's Canceled Spider-Man 4 Plans Live On In Other Movies Sam Raimi was originally set to direct Spider-Man 4, which was canceled, but at least several of the director's ideas live on in other Marvel movies. Sam Raimi And Tobey Maguire Are Open To Return For More Spider-Man Close While Raimi has revealed that he is currently not working on Spider-Man 4, despite what rumors might have led fans to believe, that does not mean the director would not be open to returning for the film. After all, Raimi had bold plans for Spider-Man 4 before the movie was canceled, and given how the director now has a working relationship with Marvel Studios through his Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Raimi returning for Spider-Man 4 would not be hard. Speaking to Moviepilot, Raimi said, "I'm completely open to it."
Raimi is not the only one open to returning for Spider-Man 4. Tobey Maguire has also made it clear that he wants to do more as Spider-Man after his return as Peter Parker in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Maguire's response to questions about his Spider-Man return after the MCU film was as exciting as it could get for the chances of Spider-Man 4 getting made, with the star saying that "it would be a 'yes!'" if he got asked by Marvel to return for more Spider-Man in any shape or form.
Sony's Spider-Man Universe Is Not Looking Good The SSU's Latest Release Broke Negative Records Close Another reason that could contribute to Spider-Man 4 happening is that Sony's Spider-Man Universe is far from the success the studio hoped it would be. The SSU started with a bang thanks to Tom Hardy's Venom being a major hit. However, subsequent movies in the franchise have seen diminishing box office returns, with the SSU's latest two releases — Morbius and Madame Web — becoming box office bombs that resulted in jokes from fans. The SSU is at the lowest it has ever been, and Spider-Man 4 could come as an answer to that.
One of the biggest complaints regarding the shared universe is that a franchise that calls itself Sony's Spider-Man Universe simply does not have a Spider-Man in it. Madame Web even scrapped planned Spider-Man scenes, adding to the criticism of the universe. The failure of the SSU could lead to Sony finally focusing on a standalone Spider-Man franchise that is more likely to be successful, especially since Venom: The Last Dance will end the SSU's most popular film series. With interest high for Maguire's Spider-Man 4, the movie could be the answer to Sony's problems.
Spider-Man: No Way Home Set Up The Perfect Plot For Spider-Man 4 Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man Could Have An Emotional Return Spider-Man: No Way Home's ending carried quite the ramifications. In order to stop all the characters who knew who Peter Parker was from across the multiverse from coming to the MCU, Tom Holland's Spider-Man asked Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange to make everyone forget who Peter Parker was. However, given how the spell affected characters from other universes, it would make sense that everyone who knew Maguire's Peter would forget about him as well.
Despite Maguire's Spider-Man and villains from his movie appearing in Spider-Man: No Way Home, the universe from the Raimi movies was never shown. Spider-Man 4 could explore the fallout from Maguire's MCU appearance, showing the hero trying to get Kirsten Dunst's Mary Jane Watson — and perhaps a daughter, as older Spider-Man comic book stories have included — to remember him. To revert the spell, Maguire's Spider-Man could go to his world's Doctor Strange, paying off a Raimiverse Easter egg after two decades in the possible Spider-Man 4.
Spider-Man 4 Spider-Man 4 is the canceled sequel to Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 3. Despite his plans to develop another movie starring Tobey Maguire as Peter Parker, the director chose to scrap the project early in development, which allowed Sony to move forward with the Andrew Garfield-led reboot The Amazing Spider-Man. Ideas for the canceled fourth installment included John Malkovich's Vulture, Anne Hathaway's Felicia Hardy, and Bruce Campbell's Mysterio.
