SPOILERS AHEAD
Spider-Man, one of the world’s most famous superheroes, returned to theaters on December 17, 2021, starring Tom Holland, Tobery Maguire, and Andrew Garfield. Director Jon Watts gave fans exactly what they asked for, to bring all three Spider-Man’s to life by connecting the multiverse theory together. This film was extremely successful in box office sales, reaching nearly 1.9 billion USD.
The movie starts as soon as the last one ends, with Mysterio revealing Spider-Man’s identity as Peter Parker. The unwanted fame brings misfortune to him, MJ, and Ned, where they were rejected by their dream college, MIT. Peter then decides to visit Doctor Strange for a spell to reverse time back to before everything went wrong, but that was unattainable. Instead, Strange had a spell that would allow everyone to forget who Peter Parker was. During the casting of the spell, Peter continued to modify it to exclude his loved ones, such as MJ, Aunt May, Ned, and others. This caused the spell to become unhinged and spin out of control, opening the multiverse and allowing super villains from alternate universes to crawl through.
This movie is truly brilliant, as it manages to scratch all the itches of Marvel lovers. In Spider-Man: No Way Home, we got to see the three Spider-Mans working together, and the love story between Peter and MJ blossom. This movie gave closure to many fans, allowing them to see a happy ending for two of the three Spider-Mans. The only Spider-Man who did not get their happy ending was Peter Parker (played by Tom Holland). Hopefully we will get to see more of his story in the future.
