Plot details remain under wraps, but long-time Spider-Man franchise producer Amy Pascal, while appearing on Deadline's Behind the Lens podcast in December last year, teased what we can expect from the story.
She said: 'We have to deal with the fact that he decided he was going to give up being Peter Parker [in No Way Home], and that he was going to focus on being Spider-Man because being Peter Parker was too hard.'
Tom Holland revealed that Spider-Man 4 will begin filming in the summer of 2025 during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon back in October last year.
Glasgow City Council have announced a full list of roads set to be impacted by the filming, including major streets such as West Nile Street, Bothwell Street, Ingram Street and Queen Street.
