Fans who saw the pictures seem to be confused in the comments, but this is a generally good sign. That the two are meeting now indicates that they could be chatting about the forthcomingMCU movie.
If they are meeting about Spider-Man 4, it could mark the first substantial news about the project to date. The movie has been in a seemingly precarious position, with no director currently announced.
To date, the film has only been confirmed as being written, with no start date attached. While websites like Production List do indicate it will begin filming in January, it’s important to note Spider-Man 4 is still in the very early days.
Spider-Man 4 rumors have been rampant in the years since the character’s last appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home. The most prominent rumors involveSam Raimi returning as directoror the inclusion of the black suit and, by extension,Venom, though nothing has been confirmed at the time of writing.
Holland is currently in London, starring in a production of Romeo & Juliet, tothe dismay of fans. It’s not known when he’ll next be appearing as the wall-crawler, though he is reportedly a major facet of the MCU’sSecret Warsplans, as well as one ofmany rumored cameos for Deadpool & Wolverine.
