After a lot of waiting and few reported leaks, the full-fledged trailer of Spider-Man No Way Home is here and boy, is the MCU shaken up. While the teaser had done its job of teasing the chaotic and endless possibilities after Tom Holland’s Peter Parker and Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange crack open in the multiverse (and kickstarted a meme fest), the new clip has all sorts of jaw-dropping stuff with brief introductions to all the bad guys that every wall-crawler has ever fought. Apart from Ultron, it features five villains from past Spidey franchises, including Spider-Man 2's Doctor Octopus (Alfred Molina), The Amazing Spider-Man 2's Electro (Jamie Foxx), Spider-Man 3's Sandman (Thomas Haden Church) and Spider-Man's Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe) and Lizard (Rhys Ifans) from The Amazing Spider-Man.

But, unfortunately, that is all! To give you a little context, the Jon Watts directorial is one of the most awaited films of the year. And not just because it is bringing Spidey and Stephen Strange together while they open up the multiverse in the most exciting way, unleashing a bunch of villains from different universes. But also because with the portal opening up for the bad guys, Spiderman loyalists were hopeful that Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man(s) would also turn up.
And those hopes were validated when new leaked images confirmed that both Maguire and Garfield who played the web-slinger in Spider-Man and The Amazing Spider-Man franchises are joining the youngest costume-wearing kid on the block, this despite the frequent denials from Garfield and recently Holland who had told Total Film, “People don't believe me when I say that (Maguire and Garfield) are not coming back. But people are going to have to believe me at some point."

And it seems like they were right (?) because there is no mention of the fan-favorite whose arrival fans wanted to see in what was being called as the biggest crossover yet. Alas! Needless to say, they are heartbroken and are contemplating the hype around the same.
if tobey and andrew arent in nwh i am gonna die from sadness
andrew spiderman better save her or im walking out https://t.co/GY4ZuNfDIW
people saying "when andrew's peter will save mj because he couldn't save gwen" is stupid because why is gwen dead but electro alive in the alternative universe when they both should be dead? make it make sense. #SpiderMan https://t.co/ke8uGMxDoq
You can’t tell me Andrew and Toby aren’t in the movie bruh
Bru it would be beautiful if Andrew saved her... damn it seems like I got too much expectations https://t.co/BAg2fPkN78
While that is that, the other sect just won’t settle for a no. In fact, this bunch is convinced that both Maguire and Garfield were edited out of the new trailer after the leak because who-the-hell-knows! But why are they saying so? Thanks to the scene, towards the end of the trailer one can see Holland’s Peter Parker going up against Sandman, Lizard and Electro.
But while it is just him, fans are convinced that Lizard is getting punched in the face by an invisible entity, one that is far from and in the opposite direction of Holland’s Peter. Also, it conveniently is featured at the same place from the leaked photos. Here are more theories to support the same:

I mean it is wild, but is it improbable? Again, who the hell knows! Meanwhile, Zendaya, Jon Favreau, Jacob Batalon, and Marisa Tomei are all reprising their roles in the film written by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. It is produced by Kevin and Feige Amy Pascal, and executive producers Louis D'Esposito, Victoria Alonso, JoAnn Perritano, Rachel O’Connor, Avi Arad, and Matt Tolmach.
Spider-Man: No Way Home is scheduled to release in cinemas on December 17.
