Be careful what you wish for! Now that his superhero secret identity is out in the open, Peter Parker (Holland) asks Dr. Strange (Cumberbatc­h) to bend reality and make everyone forget that he is Spider-Man. But when the spell is botched, a multi-verse of madness is let loose. Once-vanquished villains from previous iterations of the Spider-Man franchise — like Green Goblin (Willem Defoe), Doc Ock

(Alfred Molina) and Electro (Jamie

Foxx) — are now running amok. Could previous Peter Parkers Tobey

Maguire and Andrew Garfield be called upon to help out — and teach our hero what it truly means to be Spider-Man? What a tangled web! Incorporat­ing elements from the animated masterpiec­e, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, the thrilling threequel is both a nostalgic blast from the past and an exciting flashforwa­rd to the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The result is an anything-goes adventure that is the most eagerly anticipate­d pop culture event since Avengers: Endgame.
