May’s bow when she takes on the role, which people will be surprised to learn about creating a Spiderman movies, the number of scripts changed during production, and more.

As most of you already know, Spider-Man: There’s no way home begins after the events of Spiderman: Away from home where J. Jonah Jameson (JK Simmons) revealed Spider-Man’s identity to the world after being convinced by Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal) for which the Web Crawler is a villain. As you saw in the trailer, Peter Parker (Tom Holland) comes to Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) to see if he can erase Spider-Man’s true identity from everyone’s memory. Unfortunately, the spell doesn’t work and instead brings visitors from another reality into the MCU.
