Its been quite the couple of months for the actor, who has been the subject of much discussion after fans hearts across the world broke as Tom was reported to be dating a family friend.

This news was pretty swiftly followed by the heartbreaking announcement that Spider-Man would be leaving the Marvel Cinematic Universe after Sony and Disney failed to reach a financial deal.

And while Tom had said that a potential return was up to Sony to decide on, chairman Tony Vinciquerra explained that that particular door was definitely closed for good.

Spider-Man was fine before the event movies, did better with the event movies, and now that we have our own universe, he will play off the other characters as well, he said.
