Spectacular Spider-Man (2024 film)

Spectacular Spider-Man is a 2024 superhero film produced by Columbia Pictures and Marvel Studios. It is a sequel to 2017's Spider-Man: Homecoming, 2019's Spider-Man: Far From Home, and 2021's Spider-Man: No Way Home. The film is directed by Sam Raimi and is the 39th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Tom Holland returns to reprise his role as Peter Parker / Spider-Man, with a few other returning characters, such as Angourie Rice's Betty Brant and J.K. Simmons's J. Jonah Jameson.

Tom Holland and Sam Raimi have stated several times that although this film is a sequel to the three preceding films, the film serves as a soft reboot to the character. Although the movie takes place in the MCU and after the events of 2024's Avengers: Kang Dynasty, this movie takes Tom Holland's version of the beloved character in a very different direction than the previous trilogy.

Plot
After the world forgets who Peter Parker is, Peter finds himself in a new world: all alone, in a low-end apartment, fighting crime as the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Now in his second year in college, Peter finds that he needs to let new people in his life. Peter finds himself befriending the likes of Harry Osborn (Timothee Chalamet), Eddie Brock (Dacre Montgomery), and Gwen Stacy (Sabrina Carpenter). Peter also stumbles upon an alien symbiote that changes him forever. Meanwhile, Jameson's anti Spider-Man campaign takes a turn for the worse when Jameson takes the hate to the next level by recruiting dangerous criminal, Mac Gargan (Michael Mando), to take down the Wall Crawler. This hate turns public opinion on Spider-Man as the new look changes Peter's personality. Gargan proves to be a threat and Peter must keep his eyes open, but there is more to all of this. Peter finds that a conspiracy lurks the streets of New York. This conspiracy sets to destroy Peter's life. How far will Peter go to end this madness?
