The best thing from the “Spider-Man: No Way Home” trailer is the memes. The “Spider-Man: No Way Home” was leaked a day before it was supposed to be released. A grainy video began to circulate around the internet and so did the memes.
“Spider-Man: No Way Home” Trailer
The day after the leak, the official Teaser Trailer was released. The trailer stars Marvel Cinematic Universe alums Tom Holland (Peter Parker/Spider-Man), Zendaya (Michelle “MJ Jones), and Benedict Cumberbatch (Dr. Strange). It also reveals the return of Alfred Molina as Doctor Octopus “Doc Ock”. Molina is reprising his role from 2004’s Spider-Man 2 starring Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man. This confirmed that we will be seeing a multiverse with characters from the other Spider-Man franchises.
Although no official details have been revealed, it is speculated that we will see the return of Toby Maguire and Andrew Garfield as Spider-Man. There are also rumors that we may see a Miles Morales version of Spider-Man in this film. This wouldn’t be surprising given the success of Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse.

And apparently, it wasn’t just Loki and Wanda messing with timelines.
And although this last one is not a meme, we like the fact that Marvel gives a shout-out to the fans who waited for the official trailer and didn’t watch the grainy leaked one.
shout-out to the real ones who are watching the trailer for the first time right now
