Get ready for a web of intrigue and a tale that will have you questioning everything! The fate of The Amazing Spider-Man 3 has been a long-standing mystery, and now we have an update straight from the man himself, Andrew Garfield.
In a recent GQ interview, Garfield put an end to the rumors, stating that The Amazing Spider-Man 3 is 'not happening'. But here's where it gets controversial... despite his firm denial, fans are still holding out hope, and with good reason!
Sony's The Amazing Spider-Man duology left a lasting impression on fans, with Garfield's emotional portrayal of Peter Parker gaining a dedicated following. His surprise appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home reignited the flame, and fans took to social media, demanding a proper conclusion to the trilogy. The #MakeTASM3 campaign trended, but will it ever come to fruition?
Garfield's words seem definitive, yet his past actions have left fans skeptical. He famously denied his involvement in No Way Home, only to surprise everyone with his appearance. So, could history repeat itself? With Marvel's multiverse expanding and the potential for Secret Wars, could Peter #3 make a comeback?
The original plan for The Amazing Spider-Man 3 was set in motion back in 2016, with director Marc Webb intending it to be his final Spider-Man film. Sony even had The Amazing Spider-Man 4 and spin-offs like Sinister Six lined up. However, after mixed reviews for The Amazing Spider-Man 2, despite its impressive box office success, the franchise took a different turn. The 2014 Sony hack and their subsequent deal with Marvel Studios led to Garfield's Spider-Man being shelved, making way for Tom Holland's MCU debut.
But Garfield's Spider-Man has refused to fade away. His performance has gained renewed appreciation, and his return in No Way Home provided a satisfying closure for many fans. It was a moment of redemption, both for the character and the actor.
So, is The Amazing Spider-Man 3 truly dead? Or is there still a chance for a comeback? What do you think, fellow fans? Do you believe Garfield's words, or are you holding out hope for a surprise announcement? Let's discuss in the comments and share our thoughts on this web-slinging saga!
