Tom Holland Sets Himself A Deadline For How Long He Can Play Spider-Man
Tom Holland gave himself a deadline for how long he would still want to play Spider-Man after Spider-Man: No Way Home. While the third actor to play the wall-crawler in live-action, he's also the only one who will continue to portray the character beyond a third film. Spider-Man 4 is now in active development, effectively confirming Holland's future as the character. But, overall, fans may only have several more years before he retires the role.
Unlike his predecessors, Holland's Spider-Man debuted in an ensemble film instead of a solo outing, Marvel Studios decided to incorporate the current version of the hero into the MCU through Joe and Anthony Russo's 2016 Captain America: Civil War when he was recruited by Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) for Team Iron Man. Peter then went on his first mission fighting Vulture (Michael Keaton) inSpider-Man: Homecoming and Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal) in Spider-Man: Far From Home. In-between his standalone flicks, he joined the Avengers' battle against Thanos (Josh Brolin) in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.

Beyond that, however, Holland may no longer be playing the character as he told Esquire Middle East that he has decided on when he believes is the best time to hang up his superhero suit.
