Marvel, which has teamed up with Sony for the previous two “Spider-Man” movies, has not confirmed the news, which was likely why Foxx deleted the post because it was supposed to be still kept under wraps.

Holland is bound to return as the titular superhero, with many of the supporting cast members, including Zendaya Coleman, Marisa Tomei, Jacob Batalon and Tony Revolori, also being expected to reprise their roles when the camera starts to roll in Atlanta this fall. Kevin Feige and Amy Pascal are producing.

The third movie has been scheduled for a December 17, 2021 release, but fans can expect a delay amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
