Sam Raimi Nonetheless Hasn’t Heard About ‘Spider-Man four’ From Marvel

Posted On Apr 2, 2024 Av admin Med Comments Off

Attention Marvel: will you please let Sam Raimi know what is up with Edderkopp mann 4? Raimi directed a Edderkopp mann trilogy for Sony starring Tobey Maguire as the web-slinging superhero. Although Raimi last directed Maguire as Spidey in 2007’s Edderkopp mann 3, Maguire recently reprised the role for 2021’s blockbuster hit Edderkopp mann: No Way Home.

In an interview with Comic Book Resources, Raimi addressed rumors that a fourth Spidey movie was in the works with him back at the helm and Maguire returning. “Well, I haven’t heard about that yet,” said Raimi. “I did read that, but I’m not actually working on it yet. I mean, Marvel and Columbia are so successful with current Edderkopp mann [movies], and the track there, and I don’t know that they’re going to go back to me, and say, ‘Well, folks, we can also tell that story!’”

Raimi continued, “I loved Edderkopp mann: No Way Home. It was really, super powerful seeing Tobey [Maguire] again in it. I haven’t talked to Tobey about [a fourth movie], but maybe Marvel has or Columbia Pictures. I just worked with Marvel on a movie called Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Så, I’m on great terms with them. I’m sure I would hear about it if it was in the works.”

Although Sam Raimi Sounds Game for ‘Spider-Man 4,’ He’d Still Like To Work With Tobey Maguire Again on Something Else

Although Sony is planning a fourth Spidey movie with Tom Holland, Tobey Maguire proved in Edderkopp mann: No Way Home that people still enjoyed seeing him in the role as much as Sam Raimi did. In a 2022 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Raimi said about seeing No Way Home:

“It was very emotionally moving. I probably felt like the audience felt: ‘Oh, there’s my old friend, the old hero, who I haven’t seen in 15 years. He’s back.’ And the way Tobey did that performance, it looked like he had lived kind of a hard life as Spider-Man. So it was really emotional and so well done, but it was also like spending an afternoon with old friends who I hadn’t seen in 15 years. It was beautiful.”

So even though Raimi sounds in the dark about Edderkopp mann 4, he’d still like to work with Maguire again. “I love Tobey,” said Raimi. “I love Kirsten Dunst. I think all things are possible. I don’t really have a story or a plan. I don’t know if Marvel would be interested in that right now. I don’t know what their thoughts are about that. I haven’t really pursued that. But it sounds beautiful. Even if it wasn’t a Edderkopp mann movie, I’d love to work with Tobey again, in a different role.”
