Tom Holland says Spider-Man: Brand New Day's suit redesign is an homage to Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's Peter Parkers
"We needed a Spider-Child of all three costumes"
Tom Holland says the new Spidey suit is an homage to all of the live-action Spider-Mans... and this makes me even more stoked for Brand New Day.
"When we decided that we're going to make Spider-Man: Brand New Day, we said, what if we made a suit that was an homage to Tobey and Andrew's designs because my Peter Parker had met those guys. So we kind of created a Spider-Child of all three costumes," Holland explains in a new behind-the-scenes video.
Director Destin Daniel Cretton points out that we can see the "human" beneath the costume, meaning there's no face shield underneath the mask that gives it that weird jawline (and further conceals Spider-Man's identity). You can watch the video below.
With a new suit comes new, uh, features, seeing as Peter Parker can shoot his own webs now rather than rely on web-technology that he created himself (much like Tobey Maguire's Spidey). In the newest trailer, Peter goes to none other than Dr. Bruce Banner for help with his suddenly changing powers, though Bruce warns him that they kinda can't be contained (and he would know, given that he's the Hulk and all).
New suit, new powers, and a brand new villain (who is definitely Sadie Sink), though we still don't know if she's playing Jean Grey or a Dark Phoenix variation or even Madelyne Prior, or what.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day hits theaters on July 31. While we wait, check out our guide to all the upcoming Marvel movies or our breakdown on how to watch the Spider-Man movies in order.
