In just a year Tom Holland has gone from that little kid with the mole who stole Andrew Garfield's job, to everyones favorite Spider-Man. Following the actors breakout performance in this years Captain America: Civil War, almost every fan has been on board with the young actor in the iconic role of Peter Parker. With his solo movie coming out next year, fans have been curious about the character's future in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Considering the deal pulled of between Sony and Marvel Studios to get the rights for the character, there's apparently still more negotiating that has to be done.
Following comments Holland made in an interview with Variety about his involvement in Infinity Wars, fans have been left worried that he might not be making an appearance in the film at all. When asked about Infinity Wars, the actor stated: “It’s all up in the air. I believe some sort of deal is in the mix, but I’m unclear as to what that deal is.” While its easy to get worried that Marvel and Sony still may not have come to a deal for Spidey to appear in the biggest MCU film yet, its more probable that the actor is just trying to keep things hush at the request of the studio.
While his appearance may not be confirmed, its seems very likely the character will be involved in some capacity. Considering the Russo brother's admiration for the character, and how well received he was in Civil War, it would take a lot to keep the wall crawler out of Infinity Wars. Theres alway the possibility though that somehow this part of the deal still hasn't been worked out, but it seems unlikely considering Marvel's knack for always planning out their future movies and story lines for their characters.
Tom Holland also opened up to WWD about the Spider-Man: Homecoming sequel that is already in the works, which seems quick since the movie is still a year away. When asked about Homecoming 2, the actor explained: “My next project, I can’t tell you about, but we’ve just finished ‘Spider-Man’ and we’re talking about the second one and who the villain is going to be and where we’re going.” While a sequel hasn't officially been announced yet, Marvel must have enough faith in the success of Homecoming to already start moving ahead with it. Its anyones guess who the villains they're considering can be, as the Spider-Man rogues gallery has several to chose from.
