Andrew Garfield’s Spidey sense is tingling.

In an interview with Esquire, Garfield shared his love and admiration for Peter Parker, leaving no doubt about whether he would reprise Spider-Man again in a future film.

“I would 100% come back if it was the right thing [and] if it’s additive to the culture, if there’s a great concept or something that hasn’t been done before that’s unique and odd and exciting, and that you can sink your teeth into,” Garfield said. “I love that character, and it brings joy. If part of what I bring is joy, then I’m joyful in return.”

Garfield first appeared as Peter in 2012 in Sony’s The Amazing Spider-Man. Garfield received a positive reception for his portrayal of the superhero, and the success of the first film spawned a sequel, 2014’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

After a low box office return and negative critical reception for the sequel, Sony scrapped plans for The Amazing Spider-Man 3. In 2015, Marvel Studios and Sony agreed to allow Spider-Man in the MCU. Though good for Spider-Man fans, this decision eliminated The Amazing Spider-Man franchise. Tom Holland then took over as Marvel Studios’ Spider-Man.

In 2021, Garfield received a shot at redemption by playing his version of Peter in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Garfield famously played one of three versions of Spider-Men, with Holland and Tobey Maguire playing the other two. After a disappointing end to his tenure as Sony’s Spider-Man, Garfield described his appearance in No Way Home as “healing.”

Where does Spider-Man go from here? There are no plans for Garfield to star in The Amazing Spider-Man 3. However, Spider-Man 4 with Holland is currently in development. Last month, Daniel Destin Cretton (Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings) was in discussions to direct Spider-Man 4.

The film is planned to shoot in early 2025, with Holland and Zendaya in contact with Spider-Man producers to return.

Everything leaving Netflix in October 2024

It's not uncommon for things to come and go from Netflix, but it seems counterintuitive to let a great horror film like It Follows expire in the middle of the month rather than holding on to it through Halloween. Note: all of the Chucky movies are sticking around until the end of October. But perhaps the most surprising departure this month is Monty Python and the Holy Grail, which has been on Netflix for a very long time.

However, we suspect that Netflix will miss The Super Mario Bros. Movie most of all because it's been in or around the 10 most popular movies on the streamer since it arrived last December. That's a feat no other movie has matched in that timeframe. Some of this month's other notable films on their way out include Crazy Rich Asians, La La Land, both Jack Reacher flicks, and Hellboy. Additionally, the comedy sketch series Key & Peele is leaving Netflix. Start making your viewing plans by checking out our roundup of everything leaving Netflix in October 2024. As always, our picks for the month are in bold.

What’s new on Hulu in October 2024 and what’s leaving soon
A man shines a flashlight in Barbarian.

During the "Huluween" season, Hulu will usually break out the horror films. This year, Hulu is showing a lot more restraint, and the only horror titles of note coming in October are Barbarian, The Fly, Ma, The Curse of La Llorona, and The Sixth Sense. Family Guy and Solar Opposites are both getting Halloween specials, but you won't find any scares there. Even this month's vampire-related TV shows — including What We Do in the Shadows season 6 and Reginald the Vampire season 2 — are both played for laughs.

But overall, Hulu has a strong lineup in October, including returning TV hits like Abbott Elementary, the complete first season of Tracker, Dark Side of the Ring season 5, and more. Even a few Disney+ movies like Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl and Edward Scissorhands are visiting Hulu this month, which only adds value to your subscription.

Everything leaving Hulu in October 2024
The cast of Sicario: Day of the Soldado Hero.

If there's a silver lining about everything leaving Hulu in October, it's that many movies are not departing from the streaming service. Most of the titles exiting the service won't be missed, like the infamous adaptation of Cats. However, a handful of quality movies are on their way out the door, like The Omen films, Sicario: Day of the Soldado, and even The Boogeyman, which was originally a made-for-Hulu flick.

Hulu subscribers should consider this a good trade-off. Most of the streamer's films and TV shows will stay put for at least another month. If there's anything you want to catch before it leaves Hulu, you have 31 days to make your viewing plans. If you can't find the time to watch your favorites in that time frame, then maybe they weren't really your favorites. To stay on top of everything, keep reading for the list of everything leaving Hulu in October. Our picks are in bold.
