There had been chatter out there that Holland was circling a new Spider-Man movie. At the time when Justin Kroll first reported on Cretton as director for the fourthquel back in September, Holland and Zendaya’s deals weren’t closed yet, but both A-listers were in touch with execs and producers about the development of the film with new contracts underway.  Amy Pascal and Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige are back as producers.

The previous movie, 2021’s Spider-Man No Way Home, is the seventh highest-grossing movie of all time at the global box office at $1.95 billion, and the third highest-grossing movie of all time at the domestic box office with $814.8 million.

Holland has starred in the previous three Spider-Man movies, all directed by Jon Watts: Spider-Man: Homecoming, Spider-Man: Far From Home and Spider-Man: No Way Home, as well as the Disney/Marvel movies Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.

The three Tom Holland Spider-Man Sony-Disney Marvel Studios movies have grossed $3.96 billion alone.

Including ten movies, as well as the two animated Spider-Verse movies, Sony’s entire Spider-Man franchise counts $9 billion at the global box office.

Cretton’s Disney/Marvel Studios’ Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings grossed $432.2M at the global box office. The movie owns the biggest opening for Labor Day weekend at $94.6M.
