Spider-Man: No Way Home will be released exclusively in theaters on Friday, December 17 in the US, Wednesday, December 15 in the UK, and Thursday, December 16 in India and Australia.
It'll be the final release in what’s has been a jam-packed year for Marvel movies, with Black Widow, Shang-Chi, and Eternals arriving before it. It'll be the last MCU flick for a while, too, with Doctor Strange 2 not landing in theaters until May 2022.
The second Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer is here (you can view it above), and it looks like it'll be the darkest, most action-packed Spidey film yet.
We get better looks at Doc Ock and Green Goblin's respective returns, while Electro, Sandman and Lizard's returns are also confirmed as part of the movie's villain-stacked cast.
We're also treated to more plot points that tease that breakdown in Spider-Man and Doctor Strange's working relationship, call backs to previous live-action Spider-Man movies and a couple of light-hearted moments that show No Way Home won't be completely serious in tone.
If you missed the movie's first trailer, too – and how could you have done that!? – you can view it below:
The first trailer confirmed that Peter Parker seeks Doctor Strange's aid in order to maintain his secret identity as Spider-Man: as you'll remember, Peter's identity was revealed by Jake Gyllenhaal's Mysterio at the end of Spider-Man: Far From Home.
No Way Home's first trailer suggests that Peter is having a torrid time with all of the publicity (not to mention the fact that people think he killed Mysterio) so he goes to Strange for help.
Tom Holland is reprising the role of Peter Parker, Jacob Batalon is back as Peter's friend Ned, and Zendaya will return as love interest MJ. Benedict Cumberbatch's Stephen Strange will seemingly take over Iron Man's role as Spider-Man's mentor-in-chief, too.
Marisa Tomei and Jon Favreau are also back as Aunt May and Happy Hogan. Tony Revolori, too, seems to have reprised his role as Flash Thompson complete with a blonde hair makeover, as we see in the first trailer.
A wide variety of previous Spider-Man villains are back in the fold. Alfred Molina's Doc Ock, Jamie Foxx's Electro, Rhys Ifans' Lizard, Thomas Hayden Church's Sandman and Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin will all be back for this multiversal epic, while J.K. Simmons will also cameo as J. Jonah Jameson, as he did in Far From Home.

There's also been lots of speculation about Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield reprising their respective iterations of Peter Parker/Spider-Man. Garfield and Holland have consistently denied that the former webslingers will be back, with Holland recently downplaying their involvement again (via The Associated Press' tweet below), saying he'd "like to share the screen with them one day".
Per the film's official site, an official synopsis reads: "For the first time in the cinematic history of Spider-Man, our friendly neighborhood hero is unmasked and no longer able to separate his normal life from the high-stakes of being a Super Hero. When he asks for help from Doctor Strange the stakes become even more dangerous, forcing him to discover what it truly means to be Spider-Man."
The third MCU Spider-Man movie, then, will deal with the repercussions of Far From Home’s ending. Here, Spidey was accused of being a drone-controlling terrorist by Mysterio, and J. Jonah Jameson made an appearance to reveal the superhero's secret identity as Peter Parker.
So Peter seems to be getting taken to court for allegedly murdering Mysterio. Given he's back in school at some point, however, we think he (with Matt Murdock's potential help) will be found innocent. But, with his secret identity revealed, that's only the first step in clearing his name, so to speak.
In the comics, there's previous form for Peter requesting the aid of magical beings, too.
After Peter revealed his identity in the Civil War comic series, his Aunt May was shot as a by-product of that decision. In a bid to stop her from dying, Peter and Mary Jane – who were married at the time – asked the demon lord Mephisto to save May's life. In exchange, Peter and Mary Jane would give up their marriage, which Mephisto agrees to. Using his powerful magic, Mephisto alters the course of history to reflect these changes.
Now that two trailers are out, we know that the controversial (and actively disliked) One More Day comic storyline involving Peter's identity and magic may be loosely adapted here. Rather than Mephisto, though, it seems Doctor Strange will be the one to try and alter the timeline.
We're unsure, but it sound like it could be. Speaking to GQ in November, Holland suggested that he may hang up his webshooters after No Way Home is released.
There's a chance that Holland may stick around for a bit longer, though. The character was seen in a post-credits scene in Venom: Let There Be Carnage, which may hint at a showdown between Spider-Man and the symbiotic anti-hero. Holland has already confirmed that he shot that post-credits stinger on the No Way Home set (per Murphy's Multiverse).
And, according to a Small Screen report, Holland has signed on to appear in Venom 3, which Sony Pictures producer Amy Pascal has confirmed is in the planning stages (per Collider). Take this rumor with a huge helping of salt for now, however.
After that, though, who's to say whether Holland will continue as the iconic superhero. He's 25 now so, if he wants out by the time he's 30, he'll only have one or two movies left in him.
In a separate interview with Fandango, Pascal said that she'd like Holland to be Spider-Man for another movie trilogy. Holland has since responded to Pascal's claims, saying that there's an "incredible bright future ahead" for the character (thanks, Reddit!), but he doesn't say if he'll be part of those potentially upcoming Spider-Man films.
