Spider-Man will be coming home to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as the superhero is reportedly joining the vigilante line-up and making his first MCU debut in "Captain America: Civil War." Aside from a change of actor reprising the role, there will also be a change in the look of the superhero's costume.
According to SA NA, a Chinese site, film directors Joe and Anthony Russo have plans for a costume revamp for the Marvel Studios version of Spider-Man.
"It is a new costume We were trying to pull forward the work that we had done in Captain America: The Winter Soldier on Cap." The Russo brothers said in an interview with SA NA. "So, the innovations that we made to his costume in that form are very much the tonal texture that we are pulling forward." The directors add by saying that the Spider-Man of the MCU will have a look that is "grounded in that Winter Soldier tone."
The trailer for "Captain America: Civil War" has shown a big change to the costume of Steve Rogers as well, showing a more serious and modern tone to it. The red stripes have been ditched and the costume now bears mostly shades of dark blue.
The masked web-slinging Parker has not yet appeared in any of the trailers for Civil War, but it has been confirmed that Peter Parker will be joining the line up.
IMDB has already listed Spider-Man as part of the "Captain America: Civil War" cast. According to the site, Tom Holland is set to play the wall-crawling supe. It is also further rumoured that Marisa Tomei will also be joining the cast to play Parker's loving Aunt May.
19-year-old actor Tom Holland is best known for roles that he's played in films such as "The Impossible," "Locke," "How I Live Now," and "In the Heart of the Sea." Holland will also be contracted to play the superhero role in a "Spider-Man" reboot announced to premiere come 2017.
"Captain America: Civil War" is set to hit the big screen on May 6, 2016.
