This coming from a dude who once said Spidey in an Avengers movie would do 5 billi or somethingSon had Spider-Man in his damn movie but couldn't pull the numbers of other superhero flicks
We just saw a film with superman, batman and Wonder Woman in it together that couldn't even make a billi. I like what civil war did and what it was for the MCU. It was like a 10 y/o wrote the screenplay. Black Panther coming outta nowhere, Spiderman coming outta nowhere. Everyone fighting. Amazing.
"Peter Parker goes to high school in Queens, and Queens is one of -- if not the -- most diverse places in the world," he explained. "So I just wanted it to reflect what that actually looks like."
However, he isn't about to spill any details about who these actors will be playing any time soon. "I probably can't say anything. There's a little sniper dot on me at all times, just in case. They'll hit me with a tranq dart."
Indeed, when asked if Glover will have anything to do with Miles Morales, Watts added, "I can't talk about anything like that! That would have been so amazing, if I'd just completely spilled some secret like that by accident."
As to his direction for Spider-Man, he shared, "It's been really fun to just look for things that none of the other 'Spider-Man' movies have really explored before, and decide if that's something we want to work into that. And really making it a high school movie, and committing to that, and not having that just be the beginning of the movie. The John Hughes sort of tone. When you're looking at it through that prism, it really opens up the door to a lot of possibilities."
"It was already a moving train when I got on board, but I came on right as they got Tom [Holland], and so I knew everything that was happening with 'Civil War,'" he recalled. "I was there when they were shooting it and sort of lurking in the back, looking over the Russos' shoulders, and I had ideas about this and that. We were already on the same page, but it was great because I got to sort of meet everyone and see what they were doing with it, and that informed where we eventually took it."
They've been talking about the "John Hughes" tone for a while now. And that's a decision I agree with. If this is a high school flick, it should be a quirky comedy tone-wise. Little bit of fourth wall addressing too.
I didn't say "breaking", I said "addressing". Like narration. Spidey leans on the fourth wall all the time.No I'm not down with spidey fourth wall breaking

Civil war wasn't an avengers movie, it was a Captain America film
