J.B. Smoove, one of the stars of ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home,’ appears to have confirmed that both Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield will appear in the film, validating rumors that have been circulating since the multiversal story details were first published. During a red-carpet event, the actor, who has appeared in the MCU’s Spider-Man franchise before, was asked who he was most excited to see Tom Holland share the screen with in the film, Tobey Maguire or Andrew Garfield. And, without hesitation, he responded as follows.
This dude just straight up confirmed Jamie Foxx’s Electro and Tom Holland sharing scenes with Tobey Maguire!

Smoove also confirms what many people already suspected: Jamie Foxx will reprise his role as the nefarious Electro in the film. Despite repeated denials and pushbacks, it has long been speculated that both Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield will appear in Spider-Man: No Way Home, with both actors apparently revisiting their respective renditions of the popular character in roles that are far more than mere cameos. While Smoove’s reveal may appear a little… anticlimactic, was there really any other way? There would undoubtedly be a disappointed moan from audiences after so much speculation and fan excitement over both stars’ reappearance.
