No Way Home Multiverse Easter Egg Hints At 4th Spider-Man Variant
A somewhat hidden Easter egg in Spider-Man: No Way Home could be hinting at a fourth Spider-Man variant in the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s multiverse.

Instead, the spell opens the gates of the multiverse and allows villains from past Spider-Man movies to cross over to the MCU, as are the Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, Sandman, Lizard, and Electro, but it also brings together the three big-screen Spider-Men for the first time.
