WATCH: Did Sony just tease Amazing Spider-man 3 in No Way Home digital release trailer?

March 20th, 2022 by Marc Comments

With Spider-man: No Way Home set for digital release this coming week, Sony/Marvel have really ramped up the marketing for the nig release and they’ve put out a trailer that has really raised a few eyebrows.

As you all know by now, the movie unites Tom Holland’s Spider-man with previous live-action Spideys Andrew Garfield and Toby Maguire and it was such a hit with fans that the movie has, despite the pandemic, become one of the biggest earning movies of all time.

But, aside from being a fun movie, it seems to have gained the previous Spider-man, Garfield and Maguire, a whole new fanbase who must have been too young when they had their movies or just didn’t appreciate his great they were, especially Garfield, left, who is often maligned as the worst incarnation [when he is, in fact, the best].

Which is what makes the new trailer an unexpected tease:

Did they seem to just tease the third solo outing for Garfield’s Spider-man or are we thinking too much about it?

Garfield’s Spider-man had originally got a whole big universe of movies planned out for him including a Sinister Six movie and even meeting Maguire too (here) but sadly it was cut short for silly reasons – we’ll let you look into it, but stubbornness seems to be the problem – but while many thought his second movie was far too busy with too much crammed in, many of us believe that Garfield was the perfect embodiment of Peter Parker and Spider-man and deserved not only to have had more adventures but to eventually have become the MCU’s Spider-man (I count myself among those people).

We’re not saying we don’t like Holland, we do, we just feel that Garfield’s run was cut short way, way too soon.

So, this trailer tells us to prepare for The Amazing Peter #3:

And the font, music, and style are all clearly lifted from Marc Webb’s Amazing Spider-man movies which has, pardon the pun, our collective Spider-senses tingling.

Are we over-thinking it? Let me know in all the usual ways, guys…

 

For the first time in the cinematic history of Spider-Man, our friendly neighborhood hero is unmasked and no longer able to separate his normal life from the high-stakes of being a Super Hero. When he asks for help from Doctor Strange the stakes become even more dangerous, forcing him to discover what it truly means to be Spider-Man.

Directed by: Jon Watts

Written by: Chris McKenna & Erik Sommers

Based on the MARVEL Comic Book by: Stan Lee and Steve Ditko

Cast: Tom Holland Zendaya Benedict Cumberbatch Jon Favreau Jacob Batalon with Marisa Tomei
