He explained that initially, Spider-Man 4 was cancelled because of his issues with the script, but that his ideas revolved around including Evil Dead star Bruce Campbell playing Mysterio (a role then awarded to Jake Gyllenhaal in Spider-Man: Far From Home) and Kraven the Hunter. Now that Kraven the Hunter is also getting his film through Sony, and Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness is set for release, Rolling Stone asked Sam if he would ever direct a fourth Spider-Man film with Tobey Maguire. It's safe to say fans lost their minds at his response.Article continues below advertisementSource: Sony Pictures "My love for the characters hasn’t diminished one iota,” Raimi told Rolling Stone. “It would be the same things that would stop me now that stopped me then: ‘Does Tobey want to do it? Is there an emotional arc for him? Is there a great conflict for this character? And is there a worthy villain that fits into the theme of the piece?’ There’s a lot of questions that would have to be answered. If those could be answered, then I’d love to."

It is unclear if Jon will return to direct the film, but Game Rant noted in 2021, producer Amy Pascal and Marvel head Kevin Feige are keen to do another trilogy with Holland.

I’m eternally grateful to have been a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe for seven years. I’m hopeful we’ll work together again and I can’t wait to see the amazing vision for Fantastic Four brought to life." It sounds like as long as key players are on board, Spider-Man 4 with either Tobey Maguire or Tom Holland (or, in the direction of No Way Home, both actors) is a strong possibility. Currently, the next Marvel-related projects for theatrical release are Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness in May 2022 and Thor: Love and Thunder in July 2022.
