‘Spider-Man 4’ Finds Its Director in Destin Daniel Cretton, In Cinemas July 24, 2026

Destin Daniel Cretton is doing whatever a spider can.

The filmmaker behind Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings has signed on to direct Spider-Man 4. The move brings an end to speculation of who would spin the web for one of the biggest franchises in Hollywood.

Cretton will bring fresh blood to this iteration of Spider-Man, which stars Tom Holland and is a co-production between two separate studios, Sony and Disney-owned Marvel. And it will make him the fourth director to take on a Spidey solo feature. Jon Watts directed the previous three Holland-starring movies, while Marc Webb helmed the two Amazing Spider-Man movies that starred Andrew Garfield. Sam Raimi directed the trilogy that featured Tobey Maguire.

'Shang-Chi' was one of the better Marvel movies in recent years. It wasn't without it's issues but it was a solid effort.

Might as well fit shang chi into this. The fact they didn't touch it makes it clear Marvel was a shyt show post end game
