This is a real movie worthy of the fans' respect, but there [are] a few things we need to figure out before we can get that really going. But it's exciting and I'm really, really excited about it," he revealed, as per Deadline.
As the pair prepares to bring their beloved characters back to the big screen, fans are eagerly anticipating what's in store for the next chapter of the 'Spider-Man' saga.
