It has long been speculated since it was revealed earlier this year that the Sony owned property, Spider-Man, would be lent-out to Marvel Studios for an unspecific amount of films. Whether or not the friendly-neighbourhood superhero would appear in the upcoming Captain America: Civil War. When considered that the young crime fighter played a pivotal role in the crossover event in the comics, it seemed kismet that the character should return home to Marvel just in time for an appearance in the film. Although all the right elements alined for this to be possible it wasn’t a guarantee given that a debuting Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman) seemed positioned to fill the Spidey-shaped void.

Our worries seem premature however with Iron Man himself, Robert Downey Jr, confirming to Entertainment Weekly that the web-slinger will indeed make his debut into the MCU when Civil War appears in theatres. ‘[Don] Cheadle and I are just going, ‘Wow, dude, look at this.’ We’re now like the old guard, and our storyline carries real weight just because of our history in the [canon]. But we’re also looking around like, “who thought that Falcon and Black Panther and Ant-Man and now Spider-Man…?’ I mean it’s like wow, this thing is just crazy.” ‘

Although Spider-Mans absence from the recently released Civil War trailer was felt by fans. The third actor to step into the web-clad tights, Tom Holland. Revealed to SuperHeroHype how his web-head will fit into the cinematic war: ‘I think one of the most interesting things about Peter Parker for us is that he’s the only person in the MCU now that has a secret identity. I think it’s quite interesting to go back to that hiding behind a mask.’

Naturally the British actor remains tight-lipped on specifics surrounding his character but it is interesting that Holland references that Peter Parkers identity is the one of the very few superheroes that remains a secret to the public. This is of particular note given that Peter in the comics reveals his secret identity to the world at Tony Starks behest, in order to gain favour with the public for his pro superhero-registration act that causes a rift between himself and Steve Rogers. This of course has been a talking point amongst fans as to whether Spider-Man will indeed be unmasked in the movie adaptation but this seems unlikely given Holland’s solo Spider-Man film that goes into production some time next year.

In the meantime, Holland shared his experience working alongside Downey and praised the cast involved: “I guess they’re such easy people. Robert [Downey Jr.] did my first screen test. He took me aside and gave me a little advice about the audition.”

Captain America: Civil War opens in theatres across the UK on April 29, 2016 with the US getting it a few days later on May 6.
