Is Peter Parker Coming Back? Andrew Garfield Says He Will Return As Spider-man To The Mcu Only If This Condition Is Met

Spider-Man’s return in the movie Spider-Man: No Way Home (92%) was one of the most anticipated and exciting moments for fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film, released in 2021, not only reunited Tom Holland , Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield as different versions of Peter Parker, but also became a worldwide phenomenon.

The combination of nostalgia, great action sequences, and a plot that explored the multiverse propelled ‘No Way Home’ to become one of the highest-grossing releases in history, surpassing $1 billion at the global box office. The film’s success was so great that many are wondering if we’ll see these three actors together again as Spider-Man in future productions.

What did Andrew Garfield say about returning as Spider-Man to the MCU?

Andrew Garfield, who played Peter Parker in The Amazing Spider-Man and its sequel, made it clear to Esquire that he would once again don the iconic Spider-Man suit, but under certain conditions. After the third installment of his franchise was cancelled by Sony, Garfield was left feeling like his story as the wall-crawler had been left incomplete. However, his participation in Spider-Man: No Way Home allowed him to close that chapter in a more satisfactory way.

Despite this, Garfield said that he would not return to play the character unless the project was something “unique and exciting.” According to him, he would only return if the story brought something new to the character and to the culture, if it had a novel concept that had not been done before. For him, it is not just about putting on the suit again, but doing so in a film that has a real purpose and that manages to generate joy for both the audience and himself. Garfield reiterated his love for the character and his commitment to only return if the story was as impactful and special as the last one.

Will the three Spider-Men from ‘No Way Home’ reunite?

Following the huge success of ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’, rumors about a possible reunion between Tom Holland, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield continue to circulate. Although there are no official plans confirming a future meeting of the three Spider-Men, the interest from both fans and studios is palpable. Marvel and Sony could be considering the possibility of these versions of Peter Parker appearing again, especially now that the multiverse is a central theme in the MCU.

Given the success of No Way Home, Marvel may want to bring back all three actors for upcoming Avengers films. While nothing has been confirmed, the door seems to be open for future collaborations as the stories of the multiverse continue to expand and offer new narrative opportunities. With the announcement of future Avengers installments, it wouldn’t be far-fetched to imagine a return of these iconic Spider-Men to help Earth’s Mightiest Heroes face new threats.

When are the next ‘Avengers’ movies coming out?

Fans are hoping that this film will be as epic as ‘Avengers: Endgame’, bringing together many heroes from the cinematic universe, including, possibly, the different versions of Spider-Man. However, as of yet, there are no official confirmations about which characters will be involved in these productions.

Who is the best Spider-Man?
