Spider-Man, Spider-Man, how will you ever get out of this jam?
Picking up after the events of 2019’s “Spider-Man: Far From Home,” the friendly neighborhood hero’s next adventure will see him facing the repercussions of not only having his secret identity revealed to the public, but also being falsely accused of killing Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal).
Directed by Jon Watts, “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” out Dec. 17, reportedly marks the end of a trilogy that launched with 2017’s “Spider-Man: Homecoming” — which reintroduced Peter Parker (Tom Holland) trying to juggle high school with his secret life as a web-slinging crime-fighter. In a recent interview with Empire, Watts has even described the film as “Spider-Man: Endgame.”
Although not much has been officially revealed about the highly anticipated installment, “No Way Home” is expected to showcase the multiversal might of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We do know that Peter turns to Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) for a way out of his current predicament, but unfortunately, things don’t go quite as planned. Amid the fallout, Peter will have to face a number of fan-favorite foes from across Sony’s various “Spider-Man” franchises — adventure befitting the only superhero that can cross freely between the MCU and Sony’s Spider-Man universe.
Here are a few of the biggest questions we have about the upcoming film:
Will Venom make an appearance?
One of the biggest surprises in October’s “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” comes during the film’s midcredits scene. As Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) and Venom are enjoying their island getaway together, something happens, and suddenly the television is tuned to a broadcast of the Daily Bugle’s J. Jonah Jameson (J.K. Simmons) revealing the identity of Spider-Man. This means that, at least from that moment, Eddie and Venom are within the same cinematic universe as “No Way Home.”
