Garfield himself mentioned that he would not be able to say anything that would convince people that he was really out of the movie.

Those 4 words are what keep people hopeful that he'll eventually show up in the film. Garfield did talk about how cool it would be for him as a fan to see the three spidy's team up! Telling Variety,

"I understand why people are freaking out about the concept of that because I'm a fan as well," He then added, "You can't help but imagine scenes and moments of 'Oh, my God, how f------ cool would it be if they did that?'"

Andrew Garfield has literally denied all of the rumors around his involvement in the movie. The other Spider-Man, besides Tom Holland who we definitely know, is in, Toby Maguire keeps a way lower profile than Garfield. Therefore, we really haven't heard much from him about a potential involvement in the movie. This is how wild fan theories are though. Some random guy on the street claims that he saw Toby Maguire. When he asked him if he was going to be in the movie Toby smiled and gave him a wink! He even has a picture to prove he met him!
