Will Tom Holland's Spider-Man Appear In "Across The Spider-Verse"? Word From The Producers

In 2018, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse was a huge success for Sony Pictures Animation, and it also indirectly helped Marvel Studios make the concept of the multiverse explored in the recent box office blockbuster Spider-Man: No Way Home way more accessible.
Spider-Man: No Way Home has indeed brought the concept of the multiverse into the world of live-action, reuniting the iconic Peter Parker of Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire who have now been canonized with the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Its production process was considered science fiction until a few months ago, and now it has opened up to new scenarios.

Phil Lord and Chris Miller, producers of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (Part One), have fueled rumors of an increasingly strong link between the MCU and other Marvel Movies made by Sony, talking about the possibility that Tom Holland's Spider-Man may appear in the new animated film.
The duo recently shared their enthusiasm for the film's inherent multiverse potential, which will see Miles Morales as part of it this time. In the first film, it was the Spider-Man of other dimensions who broke into Miles' reality, while now the young African American superhero would have to embark on a crazy journey.
In an interview with ComicBook, after a question about the possibility of seeing Tom Holland in Across the Spider-Verse, Miller joked: "That's an interesting idea that has never occurred to us separately. So thanks for incepting that, you can take full credit if something like that were to ever happen."

Right afterward, Lord added: "I just like that there's still so much possibility in what Spider-Man can be and who can be Spider-Man and what the different ways to tell that story are."
These two answers deliberately leave fans on the vague, but the hypothesis of a possible cameo by Holland in the sequel to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is by no means to be ruled out a priori. As mentioned, No Way Home has officially opened the dance of the multiverse by tying itself to Venom and other classic sagas of the past, and why shouldn't it also do so with the acclaimed animated film?
