What will Spider-Man: No Way Home be about? 

There has been plenty of speculation about what to expect from the third film in the series, but the cast has been tight-lipped about what to expect. The president of MCU, Kevin Feige has previously opened up about how the final moments of the second film - where Peter's secret identity is leaked to the world - will play a major part in the third movie.

He told Fandango: "People know Peter's identity. People now think he's a villain, Mysterio plays one last trick on him and succeeds... [so that] means everything's different. Where it goes, we'll see. But it's exciting that it once again sets us up for a Peter Parker story that has never been done before on film."

It has also been rumoured that Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire will be reprising their roles as Peter Parker as part of a multiverse, but Andrew has since denied being a part of the film. Speaking on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, he said: "I can’t speak for anything else, but for myself. They might be doing something, but I ain’t got a call."
