If, like us, you’re hoping we’ll see Tom Holland’s Peter Parker/Spider-man at some stage in the Into the Spider-verse sequels, then we have a very cool treat for you.
Corridor Crew, the FX guys who have a very cool Youtube channel (see below) in which they break down special effects and sometimes make their own, have put together a very cool new video in which they put Holland’s wallcrawler into the 2D/3D reality of Miles Morales… and it’s great.
Funny enough though, during the press tour for No Way Home, stars Tom Holland (Peter Parker/Spider-man), Zendaya (MJ Watson) and Jacob Batalon, who plays Ned, made it clear that they love the Spider-verse movies and are open to appearing in one of the upcoming sequels.
However, Holland has revealed that he and Spider-man producer Amy Pascall have already had a [brief] conversation.
“Amy actually asked me on the set of this movie [No Way Home] and no one has come back to me.
“I wanna be in them… I love those movies.”
This isn’t the first time Holland has had a brush with appearing in the Spider-verse; speaking in June 2019, the star revealed that he was almost in the first movie.
“At one point I was supposed to be in it,” Holland says about Into The Spider-verse.
“There was going to be another Peter Parker… There was like a scene in a train station or something, and it was going to be like an Easter egg. I was going to walk through the background and say like ‘Hey, kid’ or something. Never happened. Heartbroken.”
With Far From Home, we saw Andrew Garfield and Toby Maguire’s Spider-man/Spider-men come into the MCU, so it could be argued that the spider-verse is already open in both/all realities – Maguire too was almost in the Spider-verse universe (here), so it’s all very possible
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse arrives on June 2nd, 2023 and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Part II hits on March 29th, 2024.
Check out the very cool scene here and watch to the end for some very fun inclusions that I won’t spoil here.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
