The Black Suit returns!

Tom Holland is getting a new look in Spider-Man 4. The Web-head’s iconic black suit is the center of the MCU’s latest rumor.

Almost nothing is truly known about Spider-Man 4. While the rumor mill has been working overtime to try to get fans excited about Tom Holland’s second trilogy as the wallcrawler in the MCU, almost every rumor contradicts another, or is flat out proven wrong as more films surrounding the character come out. (We’re looking at you, King in Black rumors!)

Yet the one thing that seems an absolute certainty is that Tom Holland will don the iconic black suit in Spider-Man 4. This didn’t come from a rumor, but rather that everything seemed to be barreling toward it. From the (retconned) piece of Venom left in the MCU to the adaptation of Secret Wars, it seemed more certain than Holland even putting on the mask again.

Now the speculation has officially calcified into a rumor. Scooper MyTimeToShineHello responded to fanart of Tom Holland wearing the symbiote to confirm that the hero will in fact don the black suit in Spider-Man 4. It’s unclear where exactly he’ll get this suit, given the film is due out before the MCU’s next big crossover, but that’ll likely be explored more as production nears on the project.

This also doesn’t give fans much in the way of the story for Spider-Man 4. The black suit has been used in everything from street level stories to battles of cosmic proportions. With Tom Holland keeping his mouth surprisingly tight about his next entry in the MCU, it’s anyone’s guess how the story evolves from here.
