Hollywood actor Tom Holland, who has been playing the iconic role of Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) since 2016, recently hinted at a possible retirement from the role. Ahead of the release of his fourth solo film as the web-slinger, Tom said that he is content ‘swinging off into the sunset’ after this, opening the doors for a new Spider-Man on the big screen.
Speaking with Empire Magazine ahead of the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Tom Holland reflected on what the future could look like for the franchise. “For whoever’s next, whether that is a Miles Morales or a Spider-Gwen or a Spider-Woman or something like that, I would love to be a part of setting up the next chapter. Whatever that looks like, I don’t know,” the actor said.
Comparing his journey to that of Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man, Holland added, “But, if I could do what Downey did for me, then I would be so content swinging off into the sunset,”
According to a report from Hindustan Times, the Hollywood actor went on to headline three Spider-Man films in the MCU, as well as appearing in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. He is the first actor to headline four solo Spider-Man films. Tobey Maguire starred in three, while Andrew Garfield appeared in two.
There has been speculation that Brand New Day may be the last time Tom swings across NY as Spider-Man and that the MCU may see a new version of Spider-Man, possibly Miles Morales (already seen in the animated Spider-Verse films). There has been a live-action Spider-Man on screen this week as Nicolas Cage brought to life Spider-Man Noir from the comics in the Prime Cideo series Spider-Noir.
