When it comes to theSpider-Manfilms, many see director Sam Raimi as the father of all the trilogies as he began the web slinger’s live-action journey in 2002.

Whilespeakingwith CBR, Raimi gave fans some renewed hope for a future Spider-Man 4 stating, “I did read [Spider-Man 4 directing rumors], but I’m not actually working on it yet. I mean, Marvel and Columbia are so successful with current Spider-Man [movies], and the track there, and I don’t know that they’re going to go back to me, and say, ‘Well, folks, we can also tell that story!’ I’m not sure, but I love all the new Spider-Man movies.”

Another fan actuallyquotedRaimi himself from when the fan asked him if Spider-Man 4 could ever happenstating, “I really believe that this could work out in the future, but as he said to me: ‘If it’s going to happen, it will happen at the right time.'”
