Before announcing the title today at Cinema Con, Holland walked on stage, and addressed the crowd, “I’m Tom Holland and I’m your new Spider-Man.”
The premiere for Captain America: Civil War was also tonight, which means Holland flew directly from the premiere in Los Angeles to Las Vegas to make the announcement.
The logo itself is reminiscent of a mix between The Spectacular Spider-Man logo and the Spider-Man logo from the animated series in the 90s.
Sony Pictures chief Tom Rothman said the title is “both a high school reference, and a homecoming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe”
Spider-Man: Homecoming hits theaters July 28th, 2017. You won’t have to wait much longer for Spider-Man to make his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as he will make an appearance in next month’s Captain America: Civil War.
