With members of Team Cap and Team Iron Man known, it only remains to be seen how Spider-Man will fit into the Captain America: Civil War equation.
The latest issue of Empire Magazine offers a hint as it’s said Spider-Man enters the fray after the sides are already drawn.
Check out the blurb:
The final key combatant here is Tom Holland’s Spider-Man, returning to the Marvel Studios fold after a deal was struck with rights holder Sony. He comes in after the battle lines have been drawn, and forms a relationship with one character who, for now, the Russo’s won’t identify. “Tom’s unbelievable,” says Joe. “We’re very excited to present our vision of Spider-Man to the world. He was my favorite character growing up, so for a comic geek like me, this is a real moment.”
More than likely the character Spider-Man forms a relationship with is Tony Stark, as that’s what happened with the comics and has previously been rumored. It will also be interesting to see if it’s touched upon that Spider-Man is a 15-year-old boy involved in a “war.” Even though Peter Parker has the super powers of a spider, when it comes down to it, he’s still just a high school kid.
