Sam Raimi addresses Spider-Man 4 rumours. The Evil Dead filmmaker, who directed the three Spider-Man films starring Tobey Maguire, was asked about reports suggesting they would team up for a fourth outing. “Well, I haven't heard about that yet”, Raimi said in an interview with CBR at WonderCon”. “I did read that, but I'm not actually working on it yet. I mean, Marvel and Columbia are so successful with current Spider-Man (movies), and the track they're on, and I don't know that they're going to go back to me and say, 'Well, folks, we can also tell that story!’”. After Raimi's Spider-Man films between 2002 and 2007, Sony rebooted the franchise with Andrew Garfield in the lead role for two films before launching a new trilogy starring Tom Holland. Both Maguire and Garfield appeared alongside Holland in 2021's Spider-Man: No Way Home. “I love all the new Spider-Man movies. I loved Spider-Man: No Way Home. It was really super powerful, it was great seeing Tobey.” When asked if he and Maguire had discussed the idea, the director replied: “I haven’t talked to Tobey about it, but maybe Marvel has or Columbia Pictures. I just worked with Marvel on a movie called Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. So, I'm on great terms with them. I'm sure I would hear about it if it was in the works. I think so, I don't know.” Thomas Haden Church, who played the villain Sandman in Spider-Man 3 and No Way Home, recently fuelled the Spider-Man 4 rumours by telling ComicBook.com, “I think Sam is going to do another Spider-Man with Tobey”. Holland is also in talks about reprising his role for a fourth movie in his Spider-Man film series. THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
