Tom Holland’s Spider-Man has finally been revealed in the latest trailer for Captain America: Civil War, batting for Iron Man’s side.
The two-and-a-half minute trailer builds on the two previous trailers – but frankly, it’s only the last three seconds we’re interested in, showing the web-slinging hero grab Captain America’s shield, casually greeting the fighting Avengers with the line: “hey everyone”.
It’s the very first time we’ve seen Spidey in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it features a new costume for Marvel’s most famous character, dramatically different from the earlier Sam Raimi/Marc Webb iterations.
Peter Parker is appearing in the MCU following a license-sharing deal struck between Marvel Studios and Sony, who still own the cinematic rights to the character.
Joe and Anthony Russo are directing this one, from a script by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely. It stars (deep breath): Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Emily VanCamp, Don Cheadle, Jeremy Renner, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd, Frank Grillo, Tom Holland, William Hurt, and Daniel Brühl.
Captain America: Civil War is in UK cinemas from April 29, and US cinemas from May 6 - still plenty of time to pick a side.
