Holland and Downey Jr. formed an immediate chemistry in Civil War, which looks set to continue going forward into the MCU and the standalone Spider-Man trilogy.
It’s not long now until Spider-Man: Homecoming, where Holland will remind us once again why Spider-Man is one of the most beloved superheroes of all time.
The dual-purpose of the Sony-Marvel deal is personified by heavyweight actor Robert Downey Jr., who features in Homecoming as Peter Parker’s mentor.
It isn’t the sharply sarcastic Spider-Man that fans are used to, but it’s one that they immediately fell in love with.
