What Could ‘Spider-Man 4’ Be About?
While an official synopsis for Spider-Man 4 has yet to be released, producer Amy Pascal has hinted about what will happen in the upcoming film.
“We have to deal with the fact that he decided he was going to give up being Peter Parker, and he was gonna focus on being Spider-Man, because being Peter Parker was too hard,” she told Deadline in December 2024. “So that’s what the movie is about.”
In 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home, Peter Parker’s (Holland) attempt to erase the world’s memory of his identity backfires, breaking the multiverse and bringing in past villains. With help from MJ (Zendaya), Ned (Jacob Batalon), and two alternate Spider-Men Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, he fights to cure them. In the end, Parker chooses to let everyone forget him — including MJ — starting over alone.
