Now in fairness, anyone who seriously expected this to happen was mainlining uncut optimism, but all the same, the rumour that Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man would appear in Madame Web did get some decent traction online.

Given that Madame Web is set in 2003 and The Amazing Spider-Man happens an entire decade later, it certainly didn't seem like a probable event, short of a time jump in the closing stages of the film's third act or, more likely, multiversal shenanigans compressing time somehow.

Anyway, given the rather rickety state of Sony's Marvel Cinematic Universe-adjacent offerings, it must've been the easiest choice in the world for Garfield to give Madame Web a wide berth even if he had been offered a role.
