Amidst swirling rumors and a prank tweet about a new 'Spider-Man 4' movie directed by Sam Raimi and starring Tobey Maguire, Raimi has clarified that he is not currently working on such a project. Despite an initial tweet by ScreenRant claiming an official confirmation of the movie and a trailer release following theatrical re-releases, Raimi told CBR that fans should not take these rumors too seriously, emphasizing the tweet was an "APRIL FOOLS!" joke. The director acknowledged reading the rumors but confirmed he has not been approached to work on the film and has not discussed it with Maguire. He expressed his love for the new Spider-Man movies, including 'Spider-Man: No Way Home,' and shared his admiration for seeing Maguire reprise his role. Dylan Baker, who was anticipated to be part of the project, shared his disappointment over the film not proceeding as planned.
While Director Sam Raimi said Spider-Man 4 isn’t currently in the cards, he told CBR, "I love all the new Spider-Man movies. I loved Spider-Man: No Way Home. It was really, super powerful seeing Tobey [Maguire] again in it." https://t.co/9kSjPF8o0w https://t.co/Z9V6HrWv9R
