Rumour: Who will Spider-Man fight in Captain America: Civil War?

August 20, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Yesterday it was revealed that new Spider-Man Tom Holland has joined the heroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Berlin to shoot scenes for Captain America: Civil War, and now a rumour has emerged over at Heroic Hollywood (where else?) claiming that the wall-crawler will be duking it out in a fight scene with one of the Avengers! Read on for potential spoilers…

According to the site, Spider-Man is set to have a showdown with Chris Evans’ Captain America, which would make sense given that Peter Parker starts out on the side of Tony Stark in the source material and is rumoured to be on Iron Man’s team in the film.

Given that we’ve already seen some set photos from Berlin – including our first look at Black Panther – perhaps we’ll get a glimpse of the action over the next few days, assuming the report is accurate of course.

Captain America: Civil War picks up where Avengers: Age of Ultron left off, as Steve Rogers leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain.

Captain America: Civil War is set for release on April 29th 2016 in the UK and May 6th 2016 in the States, with Anthony and Joe Russo (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) directing a cast that includes Marvel Cinematic Universe veterans Chris Evans (Steve Rogers/Captain America), Robert Downey Jr. (Tony Stark/Iron Man), Anthony Mackie (Sam Wilson/Falcon), Jeremy Renner (Clint Barton/Hawkeye), Scarlett Johansson (Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow), Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barnes/The Winter Soldier), Elizabeth Olsen (Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch), Paul Bettany (The Vision), Don Cheadle (James Rhondes/War Machine), Paul Rudd (Scott Lang/Ant-Man), Emily VanCamp (Sharon Carter) and Frank Grillo (Brock Rumlow/Crossbones) and William Hurt (General Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross) alongside new additions Chadwick Boseman (Get on Up) as T’Challa/Black Panther, Daniel Bruhl (Rush) as Baron Zemo, Martin Freeman (Sherlock) and Tom Holland (The Impossible) as Peter Parker/Spider-Man.
