Tom Holland on passing the Spider-torch: 'Time for something different'

It's been a roller-coaster ride watching Tom Holland don the iconic Spider-Man suit and swing through New York's skyline. Yet, as Spider-Man: No Way Home marked his third stint as the beloved superhero, Holland opened up in a 2021 interview about a future that might not involve web-slinging. "I've loved every minute of it," he fondly reminisced about his time with Marvel and Sony.

Having shared the Spider-suit legacy with actors like Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire, Holland envisioned a more inclusive future for the franchise. "I would love to see a future of Spider-Man that's more diverse — maybe you have a Spider-Gwen or a Spider-Woman," he passionately suggested, emphasizing the need to usher in change.
