“For whoever’s next, whether that is a Miles Morales or a Spider-Gwen or a Spider-Woman or something like that, I would love to be a part of setting up the next chapter,” Holland told Empire. “Whatever that looks like, I don’t know.”
"But, if I could do what Downey did for me, then I would be so content swinging off into the sunset," Holland added, referring to Robert Downey Jr. playing Tony Stark, a father figure in Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017).
Apart from Spider-Man movies, Holland also reprised his role in Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Avengers: Endgame (2019), and Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021).
