Spider-Man 4, officially titled Spider-Man: Brand New Day, is reportedly planning to replicate a fan-favorite element from No Way Home. According to scooper Daniel Richtman, Spider-Man: Brand New Day will follow the model of No Way Home and “feature multiple villains, similar to No Way Home.” This approach echoes the 2021 film, which incorporated five antagonists from previous Spider-Man franchises. Moreover, by revisiting this successful formula, the film aims to both thrill longtime fans and attract new audiences.
