Tom Holland Has Finally Arrived In Atlanta To Shoot ‘Spider-Man 3’ and Is Super Excited About It – “Let’s Go!”

It looks like Spider-Man 3’s main shoot is about to kick-off soon in Atlanta, Georgia as Tom Holland has now officially flown over from Europe to the United States after seemingly competing the production on the Uncharted film.

Tom posted some videos of himself on what looked like a private plane on Instagram Stories and the final one was of him walking on the tarmac confirming he was in the city to shoot Spider-Man 3 and was super enthusiastic about it.

HOLLAND: “So we just landed in Atlanta and… it’s time for Spider-Man 3. Let’s Go!”

I don’t really blame Tom Holland for the excitement given the film had been delayed multiple times due to the Coronavirus pausing the production of Uncharted back in March just before they started rolling on it. That pretty much cemented that the summer shoot for Spider-Man 3 would be pushed into the fall/winter.

However, with the skyrocketing new cases of COVID-19 in the United States as single day numbers are the highest since the pandemic started, I’m slightly curious if the production will see multiple hiccups throughout the shoot if they don’t use a production bubble (similar to what was used with the NBA) to keep cast and crew safe. We’ve already seen in the United Kingdom (less cases and deaths per capita than the U.S.) that both massive films The Batman and Jurassic World: Dominion, despite new safety precautions, still ended up with positive test results with the former lead actor Robert Pattinson testing positive.

I’ll try to remain hopeful but it’s hard not to be at least worried that stateside film productions over the winter aren’t likely going to have an easy go as other places in the world.

While there have been plenty of rumors about who will show up in the third film cast members reported by trades include Holland, Zendaya as MJ, Marisa Tomei as Aunt May, Jacob Batalon as Ned, Tony Revolori as Flash, Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange, and The Amazing Spider-Man 2’s Jamie Foxx shocking return as villain Electro.

There is also an expectation that J.K. Simmons will be back as the meddlesome J. Jonah Jameson.

I’m slightly curious if following the events of Spider-Man 3 that Tom Holland will be showing up in Doctors Strange In The Multiverse of Madness as his final Marvel Studios movie before the Sony/Marvel deal expires for a second time.

The film with returning director Jon Watts is expected to use the new working title of The November Project (used Serenity Now for 2nd unit shoot in NYC) during it’s time filming in Atlanta. It’s currently unknown if Spider-Man 3 will attempt to shoot in multiple other countries as previously planned.

More casting news should be coming very soon.

Spider-Man 3 has been given a release date of December 17th, 2021 by Sony Pictures but a lot can happen over a year and they just might not be able to hit that target as we’ve seen plenty of these release dates move for various reasons. They are hardly set in stone anymore.

Jamie Foxx Suggests ‘Spider-Man 3’ Version of Electro Is An MCU Reboot – “I Won’t Be Blue In This One”

Yesterday, it was revealed that Jamie Foxx would be reprising the Electro role in Spider-Man 3, he’s now taken to Instagram to confirm the news!

However, from new comments from Jamie it sounds like the character is going to indeed be an MCU reboot of Electro rather than the exact same version seen in Amazing Spider-Man 2.

FOXX: “Tell Spidey let’s run it back!… super excited to part of the new marvel Spider-Man new installment… can t wait for y’all to check the new one. And I won’t be blue in this one!! But a thousand percent badass!!!

This could pour cold water on the theory that Kevin Feige was going to bring in a Multiverse version of Spider-Man villains from various incarnations of the franchise and is more of picking actors like they liked to reprise characters.

Removing the blue element from the character would suggest they want a more traditional take on Electro and likely will be their own version of the character instead of the Amazing Spider-Man 2 take.

Marvel has already done this with J.K. Simmons being cast as a rebooted MCU take on J. Jonah Jameson as the character is played by the same actor but acts/looks differently from the previous take from the Sam Raimi films.

I’m more curious if they’re simply assembling the Sinister Six and Kevin Feige wanted Jamie Foxx back in the role of Electro.

Spider-Man 3 is expected to be released on December 17th, 2021.

Jamie Foxx Reportedly Reprising Electro Role From ‘Amazing Spider-Man 2’ In ‘Spider-Man 3’ – The Sinister Six Coming?

In a super bizarre casting report from The Hollywood Reporter, Oscar-winner Jamie Foxx is reprising the role of Spider-Man villain Electro in the untitled Spider-Man 3 from Marvel Studios.

Foxx played the character is horrible received Spidey film The Amazing Spider-Man 2 the film’s poor reception led to the MCU reboot and casting of Tom Holland. He wouldn’t be the first actor from another incarnation of the Spider-Man franchise to return as J.K. Simmons has returned to play J. Jonah Jameson.

This would be the first casting for Spider-Man 3 reported by a trade.

Before Amazing Spider-Man 2 become a disaster of sorts there had been plans of a Sinister Six movie written and directed by Drew Goddard (The Martian, The Cabin In The Woods), there was an expectation that Jamie Foxx’s Electro would be part of that lineup alongside other characters that were being teased in that second Andrew Garfield film.

There is a chance that they might attempt to fully realize the Sinister Six or at least the MCU version of it. Michael Keaton’s Vulture from Spider-Man: Homecoming showed up in the Morbius trailer, which could help to establish that Jared Leto’s villain may crossover into the MCU.

Jon Watts is directing again and Tom Holland is set to reprise the Peter Parker role.

Sony Pictures bumped Spider-Man 3’s release date to December 17th, 2021.
