While many fans were expecting an official title reveal tonight, Tom Holland's first appearance on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon went ahead without incident as the fan-favorite star stuck to the script and briefly teased his untitled Spider-Man threequel before previewing a clip from his latest film, Cherry.
While there was no chance he was going to provide any plot details, Fallon still pressed him on the various rumors surrounding the film, namely the returning villains, played by Jamie Foxx and Alfred Molina, and the involvement of both previous live-action Spideys, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield.
He declines to respond to the first query, which has already been confirmed by multiple sources, but when asked about Maguire and Garfield, Holland admits that, as far as he knows, neither is in the film.
"I've read the script from the beginning to the end, it would've been a miracle if they could've kept that from me. At the moment, there is no cameo from the two boys."
In addition to Holland as the headliner, the confirmed supporting cast will consist of Zendaya as MJ, Jacob Batalon as Ned Leeds, Marisa Tomei as Aunt May, Tony Revolori as Flash Thompson, J.K. Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson, and Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange; with Jamie Foxx and Alfred Molina reprising their roles as Electro and Doctor Octopus, respectively, from the earlier Spider-Man films.
Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, Kirsten Dunst, Emma Stone, and Charlie Cox have all also been rumored to reprise their roles from the previous Spider-Man movies and the Daredevil TV series, respectively.
Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures' Untitled Spider-Man sequel is tentatively scheduled to swing into theaters worldwide on December 17.
