This is pure speculation on my part, but Marvel may be revealing a first look at Tom Holland as Spider-Man in Captain America: Civil War by January 15th.
It’s learned new Spider-Man merchandise is under embargo until the 15th, which is next Friday.
Merchoid.com has a listing for an officially licensed Spider-Man hoodie where it’s stated:
Ok, so here’s the deal: we have photos of the Spider-man hoodie coming very soon. We really, REALLY want to show it to you now, but we’re not allowed to just yet. Make sure you check back on the 15th January for your very first look!
With the images under embargo, it’s possible the pics of the hoodie may give clues as to the design of the new Tom Holland Spider-Man costume. Taking a quick glance at some of the related products seems to match the color schemes for the various properties (Destiny, Super Mario, Assassin’s Creed, Captain America, etc).
This also begs the question, if the site is under embargo, does that mean more Spider-Man merchandise will be released next week? And the obvious: Will Marvel reveal a look at Tom Holland’s Spider-Man costume next week?
Of course, the Spider-Man hoodie could simply have nothing to do with the movie.
