Tobey Maguire and Sam Raimi gave comic book fans the Spider-Man trilogy even before the Marvel Cinematic Universe existed. Fans have demanded the Spider-Man 4 after seeing Tobey in 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home. There had been no news until recently, when actor Thomas Haden Church, known for playing Sandman in the Tobey-led threequel, gave a positive update about a possible fourth film in that franchise.
The first film by Sam Raimi was released in 2002, and it gave the fans one of the best villains, Norman Osborn, played by Willen Dafoe. Last year in December, according to a survey based on Netflix subscribers’ viewership data, Tobey’s Peter Parker was the most popular among the fans. His films were watched for 59.5 million hours, followed by Tom Holland’s 48.9 million hours, and then Andrew Garfield’s films were watched for 36.2 million hours.
Thomas Haden Church appeared as Flint Marko, aka Sandman, in 2007’s Spider-Man 3 by Sam Raimi. He appeared in an interview with ComicBook.com and revealed hearing rumors about a potential Spider-Man 4 and expressed his desire to return in that. He said, “Sandman… there’s been some rumors that they might ask me to do another Spider-Man, and I’d do it tomorrow.”
Further speaking of the rumored Spider-Man 4, Church continued, “You know, they never asked me to show up in another movie, another Marvel film, but I think Sam [Raimi] is going to do another Spider-Man with Tobey [Maguire]. That’s the one that — I was. Actually, they had an option for me to do Spider-Man 4 when there was going to be a Spider-Man 4. They had an option on me to come back. So, if it happens, that would be fantastic. I’m just getting a little old.”
However, there have been no official announcements regarding the alleged Tobey Maguire Spider-Man 4, helmed by Sam Raimi. But Marvel boss Kevin Feige talked about having big ideas with Spider-Man after No Way Home’s massive success.
Here’s how the netizens reacted to the news:
One fan requested, “Spiderman 4 pls for tobey and spiderman 3 for andrew pls.”
Another wrote, “DONT GIVE ME HOPE.”
One fan complementing Church added, “He was the best part of Spiderman 3 (other than Bully Maguire).”
Followed by one saying, “Sony we all know you’re al about the money. That’s a billion dollar in box office right there. Do it before it’s too late.”
Someone stated, “I hope so, Tobey the goat spiderman.”
One quipped, “I need Spider-Man 4.”
And, “Is this a hint that spiderman 4 is happening.”
