The real title of the highly anticipated third installation of  “Spider-Man” in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” the studio revealed.

The announcement comes after Tom Holland, Zendaya and Jacob Batalon threw fans off with a bunch of fake titles yesterday, Feb. 24. Just a little past midnight today, however, MCU came through by announcing the real deal.

The three stars’ antics, of course, hyped fans up even more, with some already theorizing that the said fake titles could be referring to the other Spider-Men, namely Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, from the other franchises.

“Hear me out. Home-Slice is referring to the pizza delivery Tobey McGuire Spider-Man. Home-Wrecker is referring to Andrew Garfield Spider-Man wrecking the lives of Gwen [Stacy’s] family. Phone-Home is referencing Tom Holland Spider-Man always calling Tony and Happy. BAM. Multiverse,” Twitter user @_TrueVerdict posted.

This theory may even hold true, as director Jon Watts has confirmed that the multiverse will play a huge part in the third “Spider-Man” installation in the MCU.

It has also been reported that other characters from the different “Spider-Man” films will appear in the upcoming movie. They include Alfred Molina‘s Doctor Octopus from director Sam Raimi’s trilogy, and Jamie Foxx’s Electro from Marc Webb’s “The Amazing Spider-Man” franchise.

Benedict Cumberbatch‘s Doctor Strange, the MCU’s Sorcerer Supreme, will also be joining Holland in the upcoming film, which will most likely pave the way for the crossing of the multiverse.

Entertainment website Collider claimed last December that the two past Peter Parkers will indeed be joining Holland, although Marvel has yet to confirm the news.
