Who’s in the cast of Spider-Man 3?

So far only a few names have been confirmed for this collabaration.

But the good news is – they are BIG names.

As mentioned, the movie will hopefully see all three Spider-Man actors reunite on screen for the first time – and will ALL play Peter Parker.

Tom Holland



Tom is the current reigning Spider-Man

Tom is the current Spider-Man, and will return for the untitled third Spider-Man film as the titular wall-crawler.

The 24-year-old has had a meteoric rise to fame since landing the role back in 2016.

Since then he has starred in FIVE Marvel films

Andrew Garfield



Andrew Garfield played the superhero for two movies

Much like Tom, Andrew hit the big time when he landed the role of Spider-Man.

He played the superhero for two films from 2012 until 2014 and has now been confirmed for the 2021 film.

Andrew is also well known for starring in the Facebook film The Social Network.

Tobey Maguire



Tobey Maguire made the role famous from 2002 until 2007

Tobey is reportedly still in talks for his reprisal of his career-defining role.

Should it go through, he will be in good company as on-screen love Kirsten Dunst is also confirmed to return as Mary Jane Watson, .

Tobey made the role famous when he played Peter Parker in the first trilogy from 2002 until 2007.



Kirsten Dunst will reprise her role of Spider-Man’s love interest, Mary Jane Watson

Other cast confirmed to return includes:

  • Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange
  • Jamie Foxx as Electro
  • Zendaya as MJ
  • Jacob Batalon as Ned
  • Alfred Molin as Doctor Octopus
  • Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane Watson

What is Spider-Man 3 about?

So far confirmed plot details are few and far between right now.

Fans think the return of Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange will see him potentially guiding Peter Parker through the multiverse as a mentor.

The film should also resolve the cliffhanger ending of Far from Home, which saw Peter Parker unmasked as Spider-Man and framed as a murderer.
