A new Spider-Man 4 update has been given by star Tom Holland, with the actor revealing that a script for the film has been written.

Speaking during an appearance on the Rich Roll podcast, Holland briefly brought up the highly anticipated fourth entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Holland didn’t go into too much detail but did reveal that he had seen a script for the upcoming film, and he was extremely excited.

What did Tom Holland say about Spider-Man 4?

“It needs work but the writers are doing a great job,” said Holland on Spider-Man 4’s script. “I read it 3 weeks ago and it really lit a fire in me. Zendaya and I sat down, read it together and we at times were bouncing around the living room.”

Throughout the past few years, reports and rumors began circulating that a new Spider-Man movie starring Tom Holland was in the works. In September 2021, Holland told GQ that he doesn’t want to play Spider-Man after he turns 30 (Holland is currently 28), saying that means he’s “done something wrong” if that ends up happening.

“Maybe it is time for me to move on. Maybe what’s best for Spider-Man is that they do a Miles Morales film. I have to take Peter Parker into account as well, because he is an important part of my life,” Holland said. However, Holland has since said he would be open to returning to play Spider-Man.

In March 2023, however, producer Amy Pascal said that a fourth Spider-Man movie with Holland and Zendaya was still definitely happening. “Are we going to make another movie? Of course, we are,” she said, via Variety. “We’re in the process, but the writers strike, nobody is working during the strike. We’re all being supporters and whenever they get themselves together, we’ll get started.”
