I Still Have Hope For Andrew Garfield"s MCU Return In Spider-Man 4 Despite His Recent Comments

:0:1

Andrew Garfield has commented on possibly coming back for Tom Holland's Spider-Man 4, and despite what he said, I think the actor could appear in the anticipated Marvel Cinematic Universe movie. I'm a big fan of Garfield's version of Spider-Man, and I believe there is a lot to love in both The Amazing Spider-Man films. The actor was never the problem with those, and his return to the role in one of the best Spider-Man movies ever, the MCU's Spider-Man: No Way Home, thankfully made that clear to many fans.
After Garfield delivered a fun and emotional performance in his MCU debut, fans have been asking for him to come back for more. So far, no details about Spider-Man 4's plot have been revealed, but if the multiverse were to play a role again, both Garfield and Tobey Maguire's versions of Spider-Man would have good chances of appearing. While I would be interested in a street-level story for Spider-Man 4, the Multiverse Saga gives the perfect opportunity for Maguire and Garfield to come back for more while they still can, and I want to see it happen.
Andrew Garfield Addressed Rumors Of His MCU Return In Spider-Man 4 The Actor Denied That He Has Been Cast In The Movie Close While the cast for Holland's Spider-Man 4 has yet to be revealed, Garfield recently spoke about whether he will reprise his role as Peter Parker in it. Speaking with IndieWire, Garfield claimed the rumors that he will appear in Spider-Man 4 are not accurate. According to the star, "There’s a lot of people who will just say anything to get clicks." For some time now, rumors that Spider-Man 4 would be using the multiverse again despite Spider-Man: No Way Home's setup for a street-level story have been making the rounds online.

Although Garfield seems to give a definitive answer to those rumors, the actor could still very much end up joining Holland as Spider-Man in the MCU again. There are a couple of reasons for that, and the first one has to do with Spider-Man: No Way Home. Rumors that Garfield and Maguire would appear in the film were frequent before the movie was released. However, despite images of him as Spider-Man in the movie having leaked, Garfield continuously denied that he would appear in it. The actor could be similarly lying to keep his return in Spider-Man 4 a secret.
The Latest Spider-Man 4 Update Has Me Convinced Garfield Could Still Return Tom Holland's Spider-Man 4 Is Finally Moving Forward Close Another reason Garfield claims that rumors he will appear in Spider-Man 4 are false could be due to the MCU movie's production timeline. After months with no updates, Spider-Man 4 only recently got some major news. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton will direct Spider-Man 4, which I think is a fantastic choice that could lead to the best Spider-Man action and web-swinging scenes in live-action. The movie will reportedly begin shooting in early 2025. I believe that Marvel and Sony might simply have not reached out to Garfield yet — if they even will.
There would be no reason for Marvel and Sony to go after securing Garfield before the film's main stars are locked in place.
That is the option that makes the most sense to me at the moment. The reason for that is Deadline reported that deals for MCU Spider-Man franchise stars Tom Holland and Zendaya are not even closed yet for Spider-Man 4. As such, there would be no reason for Marvel and Sony to go after securing Garfield before the film's main stars are locked in place. Spider-Man: No Way Home ended up adding Garfield and Maguire late into the process, which could happen again for Spider-Man 4 if they are in it, so I think Garfield is telling the truth.
I Want To See The MCU’s Spider-Man 4 Answer Major Andrew Garfield Peter Parker Questions The Amazing Spider-Man World Could Be Revisited Close With the MCU's Multiverse Saga heading towards the end when 2027's Avengers: Secret Wars comes around, I want to see as much of Garfield and Maguire's versions of Spider-Man while it is still possible. Spider-Man: No Way Home set up a very important question for the multiverse Spider-Men that I hope Spider-Man 4 addresses. Doctor Strange's spell seemingly made everyone in the multiverse who knew Peter Parker was Spider-Man forget who Peter was. As such, that should have affected Garfield's world, which I would like to see play out at the start of Spider-Man 4.
Emma Stone's Gwen Stacy was included in initial drafts of Spider-Man: No Way Home.
Something that Spider-Man: No Way Home did not have the time to do, but the next MCU movie for the hero could, is to show what the worlds from The Amazing Spider-Man franchise and Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy look like nowadays. After talking to Tom Holland's Spider-Man about MJ and saving Zendaya's character, I would like to know if Garfield found his world's version of her, as Shailene Woodley was once cast as his Mary Jane Watson but was cut from The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Now that Spider-Man 4 has a director, I hope Andrew Garfield's return is announced soon.

Spider-Man 4 Spider-Man 4 is the first sequel to the MCU"s Spider-Man trilogy starring Tom Holland as the titular wall-crawler. After wiping his identity for the public"s memory in Spider-Man: No Way Home, Peter Parker continues his crime-fighting adventures without the aid of Iron Man technology or the support of his former allies.
