The return of an icon can shatter expectations and rewrite cinematic history. For years, fans believed they had witnessed the perfect farewell for Tobey Maguire's beloved Spider-Man in No Way Home. However, an explosion of recent rumors suggests that the web-slinger may be called back into the thick of multiversal combat much sooner than anyone anticipated, raising the thrilling possibility of his inclusion in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday.

The question now is whether the legendary hero is truly about to swing back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe to face its gravest new threat, or is it just a rumor?

Recent speculation is surging across the internet, suggesting Tobey Maguire's time as Spider-Man is not finished. The actor was reportedly spotted in London, which has ignited rumors of his return in the upcoming film, Avengers: Doomsday. Since the movie is currently filming in London, fans are quickly connecting the dots, hoping for an official comeback in the multiversal project.

Despite all the exciting chatter, it is important to pump the brakes on the speculation. Right now, there is no hard proof that Tobey Maguire is even in London to film anything. Even seeing him there would not guarantee his return to Avengers: Doomsday. The internet loves a good rumor, but until Marvel Studios makes an official announcement, all this talk about his Spider-Man comeback might just be wishful thinking. Even if his immediate future is uncertain, a larger role may still await.
