Fast forward to today, and he's confirmed that the production for the new film is not only happening, but it's right around the corner. During a recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Holland couldn’t contain his excitement when discussing the upcoming film.

When pressed for details by Fallon, he simply declared, "It’s happening," adding, "Next summer we start shooting, everything’s good to go, we’re nearly there, super exciting. I can’t wait." This enthusiasm hints at the strong momentum building for the project.

While specific plot details remain a closely guarded secret, fans can look forward to seeing Holland reprise his iconic role as Peter Parker alongside his real-life girlfriend Zendaya, who will again portray MJ.

He also highlighted the challenge of threading the new film into the expansive tapestry of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Holland explained, “One of the things to bear in mind with Marvel is that your film is a small cog in a large machine. That machine has got to keep running.” This complexity can complicate production timelines, but Holland feels confident with the stellar team he's working alongside.

As fans eagerly await more news, one thing is clear: Spider-Man 4 promises to be a thrilling addition to the MCU, and the anticipation is already reaching a fever pitch! Stay tuned as we look forward to more updates on this blockbuster marvel!
