Here's When You Can Watch The Spider-Man: No Way Home Extended Cut In Theaters
"Spider-Man: No Way Home" became a cultural phenomenon when it swung into cinemas in December of 2021. The third "Spider-Man" film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, "No Way Home" changed the MCU forever when it did the unprecedented and brought back a slew of Spidey villains from previous cinematic iterations. The threequel was filled to the brim with the likes of Doctor Octopus (Alfred Molina), Electro (Jamie Foxx), and the Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe), all of whom appeared in previous "Spider-Man" films.
Of course, the real draw of "No Way Home" was seeing Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire return as their respective Peter Parkers. Thanks in no small part to their appearances, the highly-anticipated film managed to break pandemic-era box office records, grossing just over $1.9 billion dollars globally (via Box Office Mojo). But that doesn't seem to be enough for Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios. It was announced earlier this year that "Spider-Man: No Way Home" would be returning to cinemas with an extended cut that would presumably feature more of everyone's favorite Spider-Men.
Though details are slim on what exactly the extended cut of "Spider-Man: No Way Home" will feature, we finally know when the movie will return to cinemas.
