A recently surfaced fan-made poster for “The Amazing Spider-Man 3” offers a glimpse into an alternate ending for Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man, providing hope following the grim conclusion of “The Amazing Spider-Man 2.”
While it initially seemed that Garfield had hung up his web-slinger suit after 2014, his unexpected return in 2021’s “Spider-Man: No Way Home” alongside Tom Holland and Tobey Maguire reignited interest in his portrayal of the iconic character.
The Phase 4 installment of the Spider-Man franchise became a box office juggernaut, marking the highest-grossing Spider-Man film and uniting all three iterations of the beloved superhero.

#MakeTasm3: Fans Campaign for The Amazing Spider-Man 3
Since the release of “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” fans have taken to social media with the hashtag #MakeTasm3, fervently advocating for Garfield to reprise his role in “The Amazing Spider-Man 3.”
Garfield has expressed willingness to return to the role under the right circumstances, fueling speculation about the possibility of a third film in his Spider-Man series.
Garfield’s Return in Spider-Man: No Way Home
Although concrete plans for “The Amazing Spider-Man 3” are currently absent, the success of “Spider-Man: No Way Home” has opened the door to the potential continuation of Garfield’s franchise.
In recent years, the Spider-Verse animated franchise has become a flagship property for Sony Pictures, highlighting the audience’s deep fascination with the web-slinger’s adventures across alternate dimensions.
Notably, “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse” featured a brief archival footage cameo of Garfield’s Peter Parker, reinforcing the interconnectedness of the Spider-Verse movies and the live-action films within the same multiverse.
Rumors of Spider-Man 4 and Franchise Closure
Rumors suggest that Sony may explore the idea of a “Spider-Man 4” with Tobey Maguire and director Sam Raimi, a development that inevitably stirs speculation about “The Amazing Spider-Man 3.”
Although Sony has refrained from confirming or denying these reports, it would not be surprising if they were also considering the return of Andrew Garfield.
This could be seen as Sony’s way of providing closure to the respective franchises of both Maguire and Garfield, following the resounding success of “Spider-Man: No Way Home.”
The Multiverse Saga: A Possible Future for Garfield
With the Spider-Man franchise currently experiencing unprecedented popularity in both live-action and animation, Sony Pictures would be remiss to neglect the potential financial windfall of bringing Garfield back into the fold. Even if “The Amazing Spider-Man 3” fails to materialize.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s ongoing Multiverse Saga could easily incorporate Garfield’s Spider-Man, possibly in productions like “Avengers: The Kang Dynasty” and “Avengers: Secret Wars.”
For now, the future remains uncertain, leaving fans to ponder whether Andrew Garfield will have another shot at donning the iconic red and blue suit in “The Amazing Spider-Man 3” in the foreseeable future.
