Synopsis: ‘A young Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Tom Holland), who made his sensational debut in Captain America: Civil War, begins to navigate his newfound identity as the web-slinging super hero in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, Peter returns home, where he lives with his Aunt May (Marisa Tomei), under the watchful eye of his new mentor Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.). Peter tries to fall back into his normal daily routine – distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man – but when the Vulture (Michael Keaton) emerges as a new villain, everything that Peter holds most important will be threatened.’
There’s a lot of excitement about the film, with many expecting it to cement Tom Holland’s reputation as a real star of the future. It’s also looking pretty cool from the new trailer and poster, which you can take a look at below.
The movie will be in cinemas on July 25th. [Read more…]
The whole idea of Spider-man joining Marvel’s superhero universe has certainly been intriguing. It was a success with Captain America: Civil War, but now Sony is returning with its own Spidey movie starring Tom Holland, Homecoming. However, they deal between Disney and Marvel means they’re still bridging studios with the film, as it will feature Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark/Iron Man.
It’s here – the first trailer for Spider-man: Homecoming. It has to be said it’s pretty cool, with some great action, a menacing Michael Keaton as the Vulture, and Robert Downey Jr. showing up as Tony Stark to give the young Peter Parker a bit of advice.
While many were dubious about yet another reboot of Spider-man, Tom Holland certainly made in impression in Captain America: Civil War, which ensures that there’s plenty of anticipation for Spider-man: Homecoming. We should be getting the first full trailer shortly, but as a warm-up, a brief teaser and a new pic from the movie has arrived.
A couple of weeks ago Marvel Studios head honcho Kevin Feige suggested that the deal between Marvel and Sony didn’t just mean Spidey would appear in Captain America: Civil War, but that some of the Marvel characters could make a trip to a standalone Spider-man movie. Now we know at least one person who’ll do that – Robert Downey Jr’s Tony Stark.
It looks like Michael Keaton may be going from Superhero to Supervillain, as the former Batman is in talks to play the main bad guy in Sony’s planned standalone Spider-man movie, which has just been announced as being called Spider-man: Homecoming.
Peter Parker/Spider-man is getting younger as he morphs from Andrew Garfield into the form of 18-year-old Tom Holland, and it appears his Aunt May may be getting a few years knocked off her too. While the character has traditionally looked like someone who could have been Peter grandmother, this time around she may be played by 50-year-old Marisa Tomei.
A few months ago came the major announcement that Spider-man would be joining the Marvel Universe with an appearance in Captain America: Civil War. However despite the fact that movie has been shooting for a while now, no new Spidey was announced to replace the sadly departing Andrew Garfield.
