Tom Holland Is the New Spider-Man, Jon Watts to Direct

Marvel and Sony have found their Peter Parker.

“The Impossible” actor Tom Holland is set to play the web-slinging superhero in the next “Spider-Man” franchise, sources confirm to Variety.

The actor is first expected to make an appearance in “Captain America: Civil War” in order to properly introduce him into the Marvel film universe, with standalone films to follow.

In February, Sony announced a new partnership with Marvel Studios that brings the popular superhero into the Marvel universe and added that the first standalone would bow on July 28, 2017


This might be interesting, a young Peter Parker instead, still in High School, and being a fan of the Avengers.

Since the movies tend to trend towards the Ultimate Universe, he'd probably be replaced by Miles Morales in a few years.
