"Next summer, we start shooting. Everything’s good to go — we’re nearly there. Super exciting. I can't wait!" Holland said, expressing his enthusiasm for returning to the beloved role.


Just days before, Holland revealed that he and his co-star Zendaya had read a draft of the script for the upcoming film. His announcement has thrilled fans, who have been eagerly awaiting news about the next installment after ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’.


In ‘No Way Home’, Holland's Spider-Man teamed up with previous versions of the web-slinging superhero, played by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, in what became a highlight for Marvel fans. Reflecting on that experience, Holland called working with Maguire and Garfield "the highlight of my career," recalling how they had to sneak onto the set under cloaks to avoid spoilers.

Fallon jokingly mentioned Holland's reputation for accidentally spilling secrets, referring to the actor as someone who "professionally lied" about Maguire and Garfield's involvement in the film before it was officially revealed.
