Every Spider-Man Variant Who Could Appear in Avengers: Doomsday

by

Okay, so the latest news is HUGE! It’s looking like Spider-Man *will* be in the next Avengers movie, which is amazing because there was a lot of worry that Tom Holland wouldn’t be able to do it with everything going on with the new *Spider-Man: Brand New Day* film. But here’s the crazy part – someone who knows things is saying we might not even see *Tom* as Spider-Man! Apparently, if he can’t make it for *Doomsday*, they could bring in another version of Spidey – maybe even Tobey Maguire or Andrew Garfield, who we loved seeing in *Spider-Man: No Way Home*! I’m so excited, but also a little confused – which Spider-Man will it be?!

Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield, and Tobey Maguire aren’t the only Spider-Man characters who might join the Avengers to battle Doctor Doom, as played by Robert Downey Jr. With so many Spider-Man variations already introduced in the Marvel multiverse over the past few years, several could appear in *Avengers: Doomsday* when it’s released next year.

Tom Holland’s Spider-Man Makes the Most Sense for Avengers: Doomsday

Even though filming for *Avengers: Doomsday* and *Spider-Man: Brand New Day* happened at the same time, it’s definitely possible Tom Holland could appear in both films. Marvel Studios has several options to make it work. They could use a double for most scenes, or simply film Holland’s parts separately. *Doomsday* is a large-scale movie, so adjusting the schedule to accommodate Holland wouldn’t be a problem.

Excluding Tom Holland’s Spider-Man from *Avengers: Doomsday* would be a big disappointment, considering his memorable performances in *Infinity War* and *Endgame*. The Russo Brothers, who directed those films, are known Spider-Man fans, making it unlikely they’d leave him out. Plus, Marvel likely has a deal with Holland that requires several appearances in team-up movies. With *Doomsday* and *Secret Wars* finishing the current storyline, this might be the last chance to feature Spider-Man in a large *Avengers* film for quite some time, as Marvel begins a new chapter.

Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man Deserves Another Appearance

Tobey Maguire is remembered by many as the original Spider-Man, starring in a popular trilogy of films directed by Sam Raimi. Though a fourth film starring Maguire seemed improbable for almost twenty years, the Multiverse Saga has created possibilities for his version of the character to appear in future Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movies. *Spider-Man: No Way Home* briefly brought Maguire back to the big screen, and the upcoming *Doomsday* film has a chance to build on that excitement by featuring him alongside other major Marvel heroes. Adding to the speculation, Maguire was reportedly seen in London while *Doomsday* was being filmed, hinting that he may have filmed some scenes as Spider-Man.

Bringing Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man into *Avengers: Doomsday* opens up exciting possibilities, like teaming him up with heroes from different universes. He showed interest in the Avengers in *No Way Home*, and this film could finally let him fight alongside Captain America, Thor, and the Hulk. What’s even more thrilling is the potential for Maguire’s Spider-Man to meet the X-Men, with rumors suggesting Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine might also be involved. A scene with both Maguire’s Spider-Man and Jackman’s Wolverine would be a huge moment for fans who’ve loved these characters for years.

Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man Is a New Fan-Favorite

Although his *Amazing Spider-Man* movies received a mixed reaction initially, Andrew Garfield’s portrayal of Spider-Man has become incredibly popular, especially after his memorable appearance in *Spider-Man: No Way Home*. That 2021 film sparked a lot of demand for a third *Amazing Spider-Man* movie – a sequel that was cancelled nearly a decade ago when Sony decided to reboot the series with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While *The Amazing Spider-Man 3* might never happen, Marvel and Sony could leverage Garfield’s current popularity by featuring him in future *Avengers* movies, starting with *Doomsday*.

Similar to Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man, Andrew Garfield’s version hasn’t yet teamed up with other Marvel heroes like the Avengers, X-Men, or Fantastic Four. Originally, there were ideas to bring his Spider-Man into future Marvel Cinematic Universe films, but those plans were dropped when they decided to start over with a new Spider-Man. Featuring Garfield in a future *Avengers* movie would be a satisfying moment for fans who loved his portrayal, especially since his Spider-Man series ended. It would also allow him to continue the positive story arc he began in *No Way Home*.

The Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man Could Show Up in Avengers: Doomsday

The DC Universe is already doing a better job than the Marvel Cinematic Universe at connecting its animated and live-action stories. In just a few years, DCU has successfully brought characters from its animated series into its live-action films and shows. Marvel hasn’t managed this yet; most of its animated projects are set in separate universes, making crossovers with the main MCU difficult. However, with the idea of the multiverse becoming more common, the boundaries between these separate universes are blurring, potentially allowing animated characters to appear in live-action projects. A great example of a character who could make this jump is Peter Parker from *Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man*, who first appeared earlier this year in his Disney+ series.

Although it’s less probable than seeing Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield, or Tobey Maguire reprise their roles, the introduction of Hudson Thames’s Spider-Man from *Avengers: Doomsday* would still excite fans. This Spider-Man is similar to the one we know in the main Marvel Cinematic Universe, but younger and mentored by the villain Norman Osborn. It would be fascinating to see how this new, inexperienced hero would interact with the established Avengers. Plus, it would be a significant step for Marvel Studios, finally delivering on their long-promised crossovers between their animated and live-action universes.

Miles Morales Could Make His MCU Debut in Avengers: Doomsday

Marvel fans are eagerly waiting for Miles Morales’s Spider-Man to appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). In the comics, Miles became Spider-Man after the death of Peter Parker in an alternate universe (Earth-1610). He was a major character in the 2015 *Secret Wars* storyline, which led to the destruction of his universe, but he survived and ended up on Earth-616 with a few others. Miles Morales has become even more popular recently thanks to his role in the *Spider-Man* video games and the wider franchise produced by Sony.

There are a few ways Miles Morales’s Spider-Man could appear in the upcoming *Avengers: Doomsday* movie. Introducing the MCU’s own version of Miles is a possibility, but it might be too soon, especially with Tom Holland still playing Spider-Man. Another option would be to bring in the popular Miles Morales from the *Spider-Verse* animated films, marking his first live-action appearance. This would be a great way to keep fans excited while they wait for the next *Spider-Verse* movie. While it’s more likely we’ll see a Spider-Man already established in live-action films, it would be a huge surprise if the Miles Morales from *Spider-Verse* took center stage. Even if he doesn’t appear, fans should watch for nods to the *Spider-Verse* universes in the new *Avengers* film.
