A new dark and twisted Spider-Man 4 concept trailer showcases how brutal Peter Parker's return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe could potentially be when Tom Holland reprises the role. Information on the upcoming sequel has so far been limited to speculation, unsubstantiated leaks, and theories based on how Spider-Man: No Way Home's ending left things. That all speaks to how much hype there already is for the movie.
Despite the lack of major updates, things are finally moving in the right direction for Spider-Man 4, as fans are getting closer to seeing Holland back in the MCU timeline. With Spider-Man 4 reportedly eyeing a production start date in the summer of 2025, some hints about the actual storyline of the Phase 6 movie may not be far away. After the success of No Way Home's multiverse crossover, the question of who Peter Parker might meet next rings loudly.
To demonstrate what Spider-Man 4 could potentially be about, KH Studio shared a new concept trailer for Holland's highly-anticipated sequel. Pitched as a multiverse story, this version of Spider-Man 4 sees Peter united with various street-level heroes, including Charlie Cox's Daredevil. Check it out below:
This Spider-Man 4 concept trailer cleverly combines footage from various movies, including Hardy's Venom trilogy and Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man 3. KH Studio also features scenes from the MCU TV shows, including Daredevil during its original Netflix run and Moon Knight.
Breaking Down The Dark Spider-Man 4 Concept Trailer
While time will tell what Spider-Man 4's promised "significant event" will be for Holland, the new MCU concept trailer highlights the many debates that have been going on about the Phase 6 installment. With Peter now on his own after the ending to Spider-Man: No Way Home, there has been some call for Spider-Man 4 to be a strictly street-level story. A team-up with fellow New York hero Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox), as in this trailer, would make sense to that end.
However, we also have to face the reality that Spider-Man 4 is a chance to capitalize further on Spider-Man: No Way Home's multiverse concept, which could include seeing Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's Spider-Men in the MCU again. Even the introduction of Marvel's Knull in Venom: The Last Dance has increased interest in fans wanting to see Sony's Spider-Man Universe crossover with Holland in the MCU. Whether or not that is actually on the table is unclear, right now, as Sony Pictures has not shared any updates on Knull's future after his debut in Venom: The Last Dance.
Our Take On The Dark Spider-Man 4 Concept Trailer
Something that the Spider-Man 4 concept trailer accomplishes is the scenario where both of the story ideas come together, giving fans the best of both worlds. Whether or not this will be something that Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures actually explore remains to be seen, since Spider-Man 4 will be coming out right after Avengers: Doomsday, which may have an impact on Holland's film. But for now, the world will have to wait and see what the story for Spider-Man 4 ends up being, and how it factors into The Multiverse Saga before its end.
