Exciting news for fans of Tom Holland’s Spider-Man! Marvel Studios is reportedly in talks with director Destin Daniel Cretton to helm the fourth installment of the web-slinger’s solo adventures in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Cretton, known for directing the hit film ‘Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings’, would become the fourth filmmaker to tackle a standalone Spider-Man movie. He is currently in negotiations to take over the directing duties from Jon Watts, who helmed the previous three Holland-led Spider-Man films: ‘Homecoming’, ‘Far From Home’, and ‘No Way Home’.
The upcoming ‘Spider-Man 4’ is expected to begin production in early 2025 and will continue the collaboration between Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios. Kevin Feige and Amy Pascal will produce the film, while Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers, who have written the previous Spider-Man movies, are set to pen the script.
Plot details for ‘Spider-Man 4’ remain under wraps, but it will likely follow the events of ‘No Way Home’, which saw the world forget Peter Parker’s identity as Spider-Man. With a new director at the helm, fans are eager to see what’s next for Tom Holland’s web-slinger in the aftermath of the multiverse-shattering events of the previous film.
Cretton’s involvement in ‘Spider-Man 4’ comes after he was initially set to direct ‘Avengers: The Kang Dynasty’ but had to step down due to scheduling conflicts. The Russo Brothers have since taken over the Avengers project, which has been retitled ‘Avengers: Doomsday’.
The addition of Cretton to the ‘Spider-Man’ franchise brings a fresh perspective and a proven track record of success within the MCU. Fans can look forward to seeing how his unique vision will shape the next chapter in Tom Holland’s Spider-Man journey.
