As of October 2023, there has been no official confirmation regarding a "Spider-Man 4" film featuring Tobey Maguire. However, discussions and rumors about a potential sequel or further projects involving Spider-Man continue to circulate, especially following the multiverse themes explored in recent Spider-Man films. For the latest updates, it’s best to keep an eye on announcements from Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios.

The first Spider-Man movie in 1977 was a made-for-television film titled "Spider-Man." It was directed by E.W. Swackhamer and is based on the Marvel Comics character created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. The film starred Nicholas Hammond as Peter Parker/Spider-Man and served as a pilot for a short-lived TV series. It features Spider-Man battling a villain named the "Green Goblin," although the character's portrayal differs from the comics. The film was notable for being one of the first adaptations of the iconic superhero.

In the original "Spider-Man" trilogy directed by Sam Raimi, Spider-Man is portrayed by Tobey Maguire in all three films: "Spider-Man" (2002), "Spider-Man 2" (2004), and "Spider-Man 3" (2007). The trilogy follows Peter Parker, a young man who gains spider-like abilities and learns to balance his superhero responsibilities with personal challenges. The films feature iconic villains like Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, and Venom, exploring themes of power, responsibility, and sacrifice.

"Spider-Man 4" was cancelled primarily due to creative differences between director Sam Raimi and the studio, Sony Pictures. Despite initial plans for a fourth installment, Raimi struggled to develop a satisfactory script that met the studio's expectations. Additionally, the declining box office performance of "Spider-Man 3" raised concerns about the franchise's future. Ultimately, in 2010, Sony opted to reboot the series, leading to "The Amazing Spider-Man" in 2012, rather than continuing with Raimi's vision for the fourth film.
