On June 26, 2016, Sony Pictures Studios chairman Tom Rothman announced that Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios were committed to making more Spider-Man films after Spider-Man: Homecoming.[5]
On July 27, 2016, Kevin Feige announced plans for future Spider-Man films to follow the model of the Harry Potter film series.[6]
On June 14, 2017, during an interview with AlloCiné, Tom Holland announced that Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios were making a trilogy of Spider-Man films, with two more films informally titled Spider-Man 2 and Spider-Man 3, as opposed to the Homecoming 2 title that Sony had announced in December 2016.[7]
On June 19, 2019, during an interview with Comicbook.com, Amy Pascal confirmed that a third Spider-Man film was in development and that titles such as Spider-Man: Home Run or Spider-Man: Homeless were being considered.[8] Pascal also said that "So, you never know, he might be a fugitive. He's going to be in a very different place, and it's a different story than we've ever told before. You have to keep changing these movies, because there's only so many times it can be "To be Spider-Man or to be Peter Parker."[9]
On August 20, 2019, it was announced that Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures had severed their partnership after a financial dispute, as Disney and Marvel wanted to receive more profits from the third Spider-Man film whereas Sony wished to retain their pre-existing agreement where Marvel received a modest five percent of first-dollar gross as well as all merchandising revenue. As a result, Feige and Marvel Studios were dropped from the project, removing the film and the character of Spider-Man from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.[10]
On September 27, 2019, Sony and Disney announced that they had come to an arrangement and that the film, slated to be released on July 16, 2021, would be set within the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Kevin Feige restored as a producer.

The next day, it was announced that the actual title of the film would be Spider-Man: No Way Home.[28]
On March 26, 2021, it was reported that the film had wrapped production.[29]
