The hotly anticipated film lands in theaters Dec. 17. It'll wrap up the trilogy started by 2017's Spider-Man: Homecoming and follow Peter Parker as he tries to deal with the fallout from the closing moments of 2019 follow-up Spider-Man: Far From Home. The Phase 4 MCU adventure will see Tom Holland's Peter Parker facing villains from Spidey movies stretching back to the Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield eras, even though they took place in different universes. In addition to Holland, the film stars Zendaya, Willem Dafoe, Alfred Molina, Jamie Foxx, Jacob Batalon, Marisa Tomei and Benedict Cumberbatch.
