As longtime 'Spider-Man' fans, we can honestly say that we love the way Tom Holland’s portrayal has been handled in the Marvel movies in order so far. Inducting him into the Marvel Cinematic Universe in "Captain America: Civil War" and seeing him interact with the Avengers was a brilliant move, and his trilogy of solo flicks is a slam-dunk as far as I am concerned. As a result, Peter Parker’s fourth MCU adventure, "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," is easily among the upcoming Marvel movies we're anticipating the most.
However, it is crazy to think about just how different Holland’s Spider-Man movies could have been if one of Jon Watts’ original ideas for 2017’s "Spider-Man: Homecoming" had not been scrapped. Instead of making Tony “Iron Man” Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) the teen superhero’s mentor, the director had another important Marvel character in mind that would have created a whole different kind of dynamic. Did Watts and Marvel Studios make the right call by leaving this concept on the cutting room floor for Peter Parker’s first solo MCU outing? Read on and decide for yourself.
