The 19-year-old Tom Holland is the youngest actor to portray the character. Marisa Tomei has also been cast as Aunt May, the youngest actress to take on the role.
In an interview with SuperHeroHype, the British actor revealed what makes his character different from other Marvel superheroes.
Tom says that what’s interesting about Peter Parker is that he’s the only person in the MCU who has a secret identity.
Holland also talks about working with big stars and expressed how delighted he was to have worked with the whole “Captain America: Civil War” cast.
“The Impossible” star adds that he got comfortable with all cast members that filming the movie was such an ease for him.
Reports confirmed that the upcoming Spider-Man film will see Peter Parker in high school. The film is said to be inspired by the Ultimate Spider-Man comic books storyline.
According to Yibada, Shocker is set to be the film’s villain rather than Kraven the Hunter. The website explains that Herman Shultz as Shocker is being introduced in the reboot because of the character’s popularity in the comic books.
Reports say that if they want Holland to star in another Spider-Man trilogy, the studio should introduce Shocker as Parker’s adversary before inserting the Kraven the Hunter storyline.
Other enemies being rumored in the upcoming superhero film are Scorpion, Chameleon, Vulture, Mysterio, and Morlun.
