It was revealed over San Diego Comic Con that classic villain The Vulture (who may be played by Michael Keaton) would be the antagonist for Spider-Man: Homecoming – but it looks like this won’t be a ‘one-and-done’ affair. To the surprise of no one, talk of possible sequels for this third Spider-Man reboot are taking place and Marvel head honcho Kevin Feige has said the films could follow a similar pattern to Warner Bros.’ Harry Potter.
“Should we be able to make more after that? Sure,” he told Collider. “This is sophomore year, is the next one junior year? Is the next one senior year? Is there a summer break between each of those? I don’t know what, but it was sort of how do we do a journey for Peter not dissimilar for what the students of Hogwarts would go through each of their years, which was one of the early ideas we had for the movies.”
“The first step was reintroduce a new Spider-Man into the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Civil War and have people leave the theater saying, ‘I love that Spider-Man. I wanna see more of him,’” he adds. “I think that’s happened. The next step is making a great Spider-Man: Homecoming and a great film that showcases Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and makes everybody fall in love with him all over again.”
A young Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Tom Holland), who made his sensational debut in Marvel Studios’ “Captain: Civil War,” begins to navigate his newfound identity as the web-slinging superhero in “Spider-Man: Homecoming.”
