The title was announced in a video starring Tom Holland, Zendaya, and Jacob Batalon, poking fun at Holland’s leaking of the last film’s title, Spider-Man: Far From Home.
The film is expected to feature the return of actors and characters from throughout the web-slinger’s various film series, including Alfred Molina as Dr. Octopus, Jamie Foxx as Electro. It’s also been rumored that Kirsten Dunst could also reprise her role as Mary Jane Watson, along with Andrew Garfield playing his franchise’s incarnation of Peter Parker.
In addition, Benedict Cumberbatch will appear as Doctor Strange, while Tony Revolori returns as Flash Thompson alongside Marisa Tomei as Aunt May.
Spider-Man: No Way Home is scheduled to premiere in theaters December 2021.
The quack attack is back! Disney has released a trailer for “The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers,” a new series premiering on Disney+ March 26th.
Emilio Estevez reprises his role as Gordon Bombay, made famous in the Mighty Ducks trilogy of films. Joining him are Lauren Graham and Brady Noon to inspire a new generation of fans.
The official description from Disney:
“Set in present day Minnesota, the Mighty Ducks have evolved from scrappy underdogs to an ultra-competitive, powerhouse youth hockey team. After 12-year-old Evan Morrow (Brady Noon) is unceremoniously cut from the Ducks, he and his mom, Alex (Lauren Graham), set out to build their own team of misfits to challenge the cutthroat, win-at-all-costs culture of youth sports today. With the help of Gordon Bombay, they rediscover the joys of playing just for love of the game.”
