Spider-Man: No Way Home featured arguably the best use of the Multiverse concept since this latest Saga began, so perhaps we shouldn't be surprised that Tom Holland's web-slinger will be front and centre in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty! That's according to reliable insider @MyTimeToShineH, anyway.
As you can see in the series or Tweets below, they're claiming that Holland has signed a huge new "secret" deal with Marvel Studios to return as Spider-Man in both a fourth movie - that would be released prior to 2026's Avengers: Secret Wars - and to serve as The Kang Dynasty's lead.
If correct, that's huge, and we can't help but wonder what would lead to Peter Parker being so important to that story.
After all, his fellow Avengers no longer remember who is beneath the mask, so much of his shared history with Earth's Mightiest Heroes is no more.
Spidey does, however, have some Multiversal experience and his existence in the MCU (which, as we know, is solely down to Marvel Studios' deal with Sony Pictures) could mean he's some sort of Nexus being who poses an unexpected threat to Kang.
It's also feasible that the nature of this movie means Spider-Man will be able to reverse Doctor Strange's spell...surely that's a predicament Kang might be able to "help" him with?
We'll have to wait and see, but based on what's said here, Spider-Man will show up in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty before his long-awaited next solo outing.
This is just a rumour and nothing has been confirmed as of yet, but we're hoping the trades might weigh in soon. It could be that we're left waiting for Spider-Man 4 news until this July's Comic-Con, though.
