| ‘Spider-Man’ Reboot Will Feature Appearances From Marvel Cinematic Universe Characters
In less than a month, the Marvel Cinematic Universe adds one of the most iconic superheroes in history to its roster when Spider-Man, played by British actor Tom Holland, makes his first MCU appearance in Captain America: Civil War. Then he’ll be getting his own big-screen reboot, directed by Jon Watts (Cop Car) produced by Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures, which might be called Spider-Man: Homecoming if recently leaked developments are to be trusted.

| ‘Spider-Man’ Reboot News & ‘Captain America: Civil War’
Spider-Man is coming home in a very big way. He won’t be doing any webslinging on his own until 2017, but he will make his Marvel Cinematic debut in Captain America: Civil War. However, the problem with having a second reboot in nearly ten years, is the notion that they will have to repeat the same origins story all over again. Of course, that can get tiresome, and would probably turn audiences away from seeing the solo feature. However, John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein have confirmed that their script won’t have Peter Parker go through the same motions to become Spider-Man. In fact, the two reveal that their Spider-Man is an already established hero. More on the story below.
