What You Need to Know About 'Spider-Man: Homecoming'
Details of the new webslinger's solo movie were released!
— -- Tom Holland officially has his first solo movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and it's going to be called "Spider-Man: Homecoming."
The actor and some execs revealed the new names and some details yesterday at CinemaCon, according to USA Today.
Tom Rothman, Chairman of Sony Picture Entertainment’s Motion Pictures Group, said the movie is slated for July 2017 and the subtitle "Homecoming" alludes to Spider-Man being back onscreen and in the world where he belongs.
An agreement between Sony and Marvel last year paved the way for Spider-Man to be in movies like "Captain America: Civil War" next month; a lot of fans are pumped about the hero hanging with the likes of Iron Man.
"Homecoming" also references high school, where Spider-Man begins his journey as a hero.
"This movie shows the enduring conflicts at Peter Parker’s roots, saving the world and getting your algebra homework done on time," Rothman said. "More than that, for Sony, the film is a homecoming to the Marvel Cinematic universe. It's something we and all the fans are giddy about."
The new Spider-Man first appeared last month during a "Civil War" trailer and the internet lost its mind! "Captain America: Civil War," which offers the first movie with Holland as the web-shooting superhero, comes out on May 6.
In the meantime, Spidey is getting ready to fight crime!
