The Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer is here and it looks wild

Danny Jones

The trailer confirms some much-talked-about rumours

A lot of people had Marvel fatigue following Endgame and fair enough (we’d had a bust slate of multiple films a year for more than a decade) but since the Disney+ shows – WandaVision, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki – started rolling out, the appetite has returned.

Phase Four of the MCU has officially begun and while Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and The Eternals looks great, there’s one film everyone’s waiting for. Here he is, you friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man.

As you can see in the trailer, the events of the previous film look to be rectified by the inclusion of Doctor Strange, or at least he tries, but his intervention seems to bring multiple dimensions into play – Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse doing so with such great success back in 2018.

That being said, it looks like we’re now going to get a live-action version of it and thanks to Pete’s pestering during a spell, were also going to see the likes of the Green Goblin and Doctor Octopus, with the trailer confirming Alfred Molina‘s return to the cast.

There had been rumours that previous Spideys Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield might also return to don the suit and while we haven’t necessarily seen it in the trailer (why would we), it doesn’t mean the multiverse couldn’t throw up a few more surprises.

The film drops on December 17th – the perfect pre-Christmas presents for all you Spider-Man and Marvel fans out there. Who am I kidding? I’m talking to myself.
