In the upcoming Spider-Man movie, Tom Holland fans are fervently advocating for the inclusion of a male love interest for Peter Parker.
Since the release of “Spider-Man: No Way Home” in 2021, especially with regard to his relationship with MJ, depicted by Zendaya, the argument over the romantic life of the superhero has been progressively intense.
Doctor Strange spells Peter from everyone’s memory—including MJ’s—cleansing him from all traces, ending the last movie on a somber note and saving the multiverse. For the sake of MJ’s safety, Peter decided to conceal his identity from her after this incident.
According to recent rumors, Spider-Man 4 would have a fresh romance storyline that would cause fans to debate Peter Parker’s potential same-s*x relationship. When one user tweeted, “Give him a boyfriend,” a message that soon gathered over 200,000 likes, social media buzzed. The multiverse is open, another passionate said. Peter Parker has a boyfriend somewhere far off. The notion of Peter going through a “queer awakening” excited many of his fans.
This idea is not fully new. Previously playing Peter Parker, Andrew Garfield addressed challenging questions about the character’s s*xuality in a 2013 Entertainment Weekly interview. Garfield highlighted that this research would not be revolutionary and asked why Peter could not be shown as gay or attracted to boys.
Drawing on Garfield’s earlier remarks, one fan pointed out, ” Andrew tried to get his Peter a boyfriend, and I’m sure it’s one of the reasons he didn’t get to finish his trilogy.” Fans also recommended revising Gwen Stacy as “Glen Stacy,” offering Peter’s narrative a new angle.
Although the queerness of Holland’s Peter Parker is not formally confirmed, many supporters feel the forthcoming movie offers many chances for character growth.
In the Spider-Verse, Marvel Comics has previously added several gay Spider-Man characters, such as Web-Weaver, a gay variant of Spider-Man. This has spurred conjecture on whether Web-Weaver would feature as Peter’s new love interest in Spider-Man 4.
Though Zendaya is confirmed to be MJ, there are hints Peter may be meeting someone fresh. Industry source Daniel Richtman recently revealed that Marvel Studios plans to include a new love interest for Peter to mark his new beginning after “No Way Home.”
” According to Richtman, there will be a new love interest for Tom Holland’s Peter Parker in Spider-Man 4,” he said, citing a fan account on X (previously Twitter).
Reiterating rumors by adding, “Zendaya is still in it so relax,” MyTimeTo Shine Hello (MTTSH) reassured supporters about Zendaya’s ongoing engagement. Fans excitedly await how Spider-Man 4 will develop Peter Parker’s character and romantic journey as expectation grows for the movie.
