Following the release of the first ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming‘ trailer on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ last night, it turns out that the House of Ideas wasn’t finished showering us with web-slinging awesomeness this week. After introducing True Believers to to young Peter Parker’s world, yet another trailer dropped to show us a little more of it.
Though it was met with much praise and adulation for seemingly giving us the live-action Spider-Man that we’ve always wanted, a few people noted some pacing issues with the first real look at Tom Holland’s first solo outing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, the international trailer that followed presented a much more exciting movie despite using much of the same footage that not only reminds fans how awesome Spidey was in his initial MCU appearance but also gives a greater sense of urgency to the threats that the wall-crawler must face in Jon Watts’ upcoming Phase Three film. This is accomplished by focusing more on the villains (including the Shocker) and changing up the music a bit. But just as the domestic trailer did, the other one also ends on that epic heroic shot of two heroes that we never thought we’d see onscreen together because of film rights and stuff like that. You can check out the international trailer below:
Based on the two trailers, we’re getting exactly what we were promised when this movie was first announced as ‘Homecoming is essentially a John Hughes superhero movie. Although, the US trailer plays up the teen movie aspect a bit more while the international one turns up the heroics. Hopefully the next trailer does a better job at blending the two sides together. But that’s not to say that these have made us any less excited for the film. Quite the contrary as we’re more excited than ever to see what’s in store for us next summer. So while we try to contain that excitement slightly, let us know what you think about the international trailer in the comments.
‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ starring Tom Holland, Zendaya, Tony Revolori, Jacob Batalon, Laura Harrier, Michael Keaton, Marisa Tomei, Martin Starr, Logan Marshall-Green, Donald Glover, Hannibal Buress, Kenneth Choi, Angourie Rice, Tyron Woodley, and Robert Downey Jr. hits theaters on July 7, 2017.
