The Tom Holland-led film, which premieres on Dec. 17, will include characters from previous Spider-Man film series
Peter Parker is about to unleash the multiverse.
The release of Spider-Man: No Way Home is getting even closer and with that comes even more exciting details about the film.
Starring Tom Holland, the third installment in the Spider-Man franchise is set to follow Peter Parker after the world finds out his superhero identity.
Wishing to go back to the way things were before everyone knew he is Spider-Man, Peter enlists help from Doctor Strange to change the course of history.
However, things eventually go haywire when the two unintentionally break open the multiverse and villains from alternate realities start coming after Peter.
Based on the few glimpses we’ve gotten from the trailers, the film is expected to be a huge event for Spider-Man fans, both old and new. Not only will there be appearances from characters in past Spider-Man film series, but it’s rumored that Holland won’t be the only Spider-Man suiting up for the movie.
Ahead of the film’s official release in December, read ahead for everything we know about the movie.

Will Spider-Man: No Way Home be on Disney+?
If you were hoping to skip the theaters and watch Spider-Man: No Way Home at home, you might have to wait a while. Like several other MCU films, Spider-Man: No Way Home will have an exclusive theatrical release.
While previous releases like Spider-Man: Homecoming and Spider-Man: Far From Home haven’t been available to stream on Disney+, it seems like Spider-Man: No Way Home will eventually make its way to the streaming service.
In April, it was announced that a new licensing deal with Disney+ and Sony Pictures will bring all of Sony’s Tom Holland-starring Spider-Man films, both old and future, to Disney+. The deal begins in 2022 and runs through Sony’s 2026 theatrical slate.
Will Tom Holland return as Spider-Man after Spider-Man: No Way Home?
Don’t worry: this isn’t Holland’s final Spider-Man film! In an interview with Fandango, producer Amy Pascal confirmed Sony Pictures has plans to work with Marvel Studios on more Holland-led Spider-Man movies.
“This is not the last movie that we are going to make with Marvel – [this is not] the last Spider-Man movie,” Pascal said. “We are getting ready to make the next Spider-Man movie with Tom Holland and Marvel. We’re thinking of this as three films, and now we’re going to go onto the next three. This is not the last of our MCU movies.”
