New information tied to Avengers: Doomsday<\/a> is making the rounds, and if it turns out to be true, it\u2019s not going to sit well with fans who\u2019ve been holding out hope for Tobey Maguire<\/a>\u2019s long-rumored Spider-Man 4<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Maguire\u2019s return as Peter Parker has been one of those open secrets that Marvel Studios refuses to officially acknowledge. Still, multiple scooper reports have kept the conversation alive. <\/p>\n

MyTimeToShineHello has previously claimed that Maguire appears in Avengers: Doomsday with a fully CGI suit and even shares screen time with Hugh Jackman\u2019s Wolverine. None of this has been confirmed by Marvel, but the consistency of the chatter has made it hard to ignore.<\/p>\n

Now a new update adds a much darker wrinkle. During a recent Nerdrotic<\/a> at Night livestream, Nerdrotic shared details about the film\u2019s opening that suggest Maguire\u2019s Spider-Man doesn\u2019t make it very far into the story. According to him, the reveal comes early and ends brutally:<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s Tobey Maguire\u2019s Spider-Man world with Tobey Maguire Spider-Man and Doctor Octopus fighting the Fox X-Men, and the Fox X-Men destroy Tobey Maguire\u2019s Spider-Man, and he dies.\u201d<\/p>\n

If that is even close to what Marvel has planned, it would be a shocking way to reintroduce the character. It doesn\u2019t make sense to me to bring this beloved version of Spider-Man back just to kill him. I think this Nerdrotic guy is full of shit, but only time will tell. <\/p>\n

Maguire was the first actor to bring Spider-Man to life on the big screen, leading Sam Raimi\u2019s original trilogy with Spider-Man in 2002, Spider-Man 2 in 2004, and Spider-Man 3 in 2007. <\/p>\n

A fourth film was once in development before Sony scrapped it and rebooted the franchise with The Amazing Spider-Man in 2012 starring Andrew Garfield.<\/p>\n

Fans lost their minds when Maguire and Garfield both returned alongside Tom Holland in 2021\u2019s Spider-Man: No Way Home. Seeing all three Spider-Men share the screen felt like long-overdue closure, but it also reignited calls for Sony to finally move forward with Spider-Man 4 and The Amazing Spider-Man 3.<\/p>\n

If Avengers: Doomsday really opens with Maguire\u2019s Spider-Man being killed and his universe wiped out, that dream suddenly looks a lot less likely. Sony could still make Spider-Man 4, but it would almost certainly need to be set before the events of the Avengers crossover, which limits where that story could go.<\/p>\n

Of course, this is the multiverse we\u2019re talking about. Nothing ever truly feels permanent. Marvel has plenty of narrative escape hatches if it wants them.<\/p>\n

For now, it\u2019s all speculation. Marvel Studios hasn\u2019t confirmed Maguire\u2019s involvement, his fate, or even the details of Avengers: Doomsday beyond its release window. Fans are going to have to wait and see when the movie hits theaters on December 18, 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New information tied to Avengers: Doomsday is making the rounds, and if it turns out to be true,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":421436,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[88,206],"class_list":{"0":"post-421435","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-movies"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/421435","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=421435"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/421435\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/421436"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=421435"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=421435"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=421435"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
