‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ has international trailer, look for Easter eggs in domestic clip

SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING - Official International Trailer #1 (2017) Marvel Superhero Movie
The film version of Spider-Man has had a colorful past when it comes to the lead actor, as several franchises have. After all, Michael Keaton donned the black cowl in 1989’s Batman (Keaton plays lead villain Vulture in the new Spidey flick) and we’re now on the fifth iteration of the Dark Knight with Ben Affleck. The James Bond series is now on 007 #6, with Daniel Craig currently holding the license to kill.

Spider-Man: Homecoming introduces webslinger #3 in the person of young Tom Holland, protege of Tony Stark, who has a side gig as that Iron Man guy.

Digital Trends has been on top of the Spider-Man: Homecoming coverage: Spider-Man has a new suit in this movie, and we’ve seen the new domestic trailer. Now a new international trailer is out.

However, Uproxx notes some Easter eggs that are hiding in plain site in the first trailer. A classroom scene shows portraits of great scientists. Famous names including “Charles Darwin, Galileo Galilei, Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr, Nikola Tesla, and Marie Curie.” Then there’s one Dr. Bruce Banner, who doesn’t happen to be green (or angry) in that portrait. Tony Stark’s late father Howard shows up on a school mural.

There’s a new scene reminiscent of Tobey Maguire’s Spidey stopping the runaway train. And in a shot sure to generate some salacious Twitter Stark snark, Peter Parker is wearing a T-shirt very similar to the one Pepper Potts wore to bed with Stark in Iron Man 3.

Maybe we’ll find out the connection in this movie, or wait for the next chapter in the ongoing series. Nothing like a implied-sex cliffhanger to keep the audience in suspense.

Dorkly.com says the new domestic trailer “has the tone of a John Hughes-esque high school movie,” which is maybe what the franchise needs at this point. Although after looking at the domestic trailer, you may have the inclination that Keaton plays a pretty potent bad guy.

Spider-Man: Homecoming lands at a movie theater near you on July 7, 2017.

Spider-Man is arguably the most popular and beloved superhero in modern pop culture. A staple in movies and television since the 1960s, Spidey is Marvel's crowning jewel, a near-universally adored hero that appeals to children and adults alike. Few superheroes have as much staying power as Spidey, cementing his place as a timeless icon and a staple of modern pop culture.

The web crawler has a rich and long history in movies and television. Since transitioning from the page to the screen in the Silver Age, Spider-Man has starred in countless animated series, received multiple live-action movies, and appeared as a major supporting figure in many other projects. But who, out of all the actors who have played him, is the best Spider-Man? It's not an easy decision - every actor has brought something unique and valuable to the table. However, some are undeniably better than others, and a few have become synonymous with the character.
