SPIDER-MAN 4 Lands SHANG-CHI Director For MCU Sequel

Finally some news on the sequel to Tom Holland's SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME!

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Deston Daniel Cretton, who directed SHANG-CHI AND THE LEGEND OF THE TEN RINGS is now the director of the next Spidey movie.

THR writes:

"The filmmaker behind Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is in talks to sign 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 Studios. 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...

"...Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers are back on script duties, while Marvel head Kevin Feige and former Sony head Amy Pascal are producing.

"Sources say that Spider-Man 4 is running, not crawling, full steam ahead and will shoot early next year."
