Amid growing Andrew Garfield Avengers speculation, the actor recently commented on the potential for his return in the upcoming Avengers: Secret Wars film, directed by the Russo Brothers and scheduled for release in 2027. Garfield’s ambiguous remarks during a conversation with MTV’s Josh Horowitz kept fans guessing about his involvement in the highly anticipated conclusion to Marvel’s Multiverse Saga.
When asked directly if he would be part of the movie, Garfield laughed and replied,
“You’ll find out! Whatever response I’m having, is it exasperation? Is it? I don’t know. You’ll find out.”

Garfield’s Previous Denials and Marvel Collaboration Preferences
This noncommittal answer is reminiscent of Garfield’s earlier denials prior to Spider-Man: No Way Home, where he strongly dismissed rumors of his return, even jokingly saying, “I’m not the Werewolf.” That secrecy led to one of the most surprising character reveals in recent superhero cinema when Garfield’s Spider-Man appeared alongside Tobey Maguire. Many fans now wonder if the actor is employing the same strategy regarding Secret Wars.
Besides sidestepping a direct answer, Garfield shared his enthusiasm for teaming up with certain Marvel actors. He expressed admiration for Hugh Jackman, noting his return as Wolverine in 2024, and complimented Tom Hardy’s performance as Venom, describing Hardy as a really formidable actor and admitting he’d be up for a good time collaborating.
Affection for Spider-Verse Films and Potential Future Roles
Garfield also voiced his appreciation for the animated Spider-Verse series, stating,
“I really love the Spider-Verse movies. I love Lord and Miller. Just putting that out there.”

His version of Spider-Man appeared briefly via archive footage in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023), and speculation continues regarding his possible involvement in the 2027 sequel, Beyond the Spider-Verse.
Avengers: Secret Wars and What’s Next
While Garfield’s participation in Avengers: Secret Wars remains uncertain, the film is shaping up to be a major event, following Avengers: Doomsday, which will release in December 2026. The cast will include Robert Downey Jr. reprising his role as Doctor Doom alongside the leads of Fantastic Four: First Steps and many returning Avengers characters. Given the breadth of returning heroes, anticipation runs high regarding which multiverse figures will join the fray.
Garfield’s cautious yet hopeful hints continue to fuel excitement among fans eager to see if his Spider-Man will swing into the MCU’s next grand chapter, making the 2027 release a pivotal moment for Marvel enthusiasts worldwide.
