Spider-Man: Far From Home Plot Hints Teased By Kevin Feige
Spidey's going on holiday...
Hot on the trail of the "accidental" release of the title for the forthcoming Spider-Man: Homecoming sequel by Tom Holland, we've got a little more detail on the plot thanks to Kevin Feige.
The Marvel Studios President was interviewed by io9 to talk about the specific difficulties of marketing post-Infinity War movies while not spoiling any of the details of Avengers 4. In the interview, he talked about the fact that fans wouldn't be seeing any of the "dead" characters from that explosive Infinity War finale in any trailers for upcoming movies.
That obviously means marketing Far From Home will be difficult, to say the least, given that Peter Parker's fate won't be revealed until Avengers 4 - mere months before the Spidey sequel is released.
Feige also confirmed (at least partly) why it's called Far From Home:
“Well, when does that movie take place? We know it’s the summer. I think it’s summer vacation. I think he’s going to Europe with his friends. I don’t know what summer… I mean, I do know [but you don’t].”
Putting aside how irresponsible it is sending children alone to London, this is definitely the set-up for Peter meeting a new villain in the UK. But whether or not Spider-Man works outside of New York - or whether he SHOULD - is an interesting concern for fans. The two are inherently tied together, after all. There's also the SLIGHT concern that "character goes on holiday" is the most cliched trajectory of TV characters hitting the big screen.
But then, different approaches in the MCU have worked before and this is in Marvel's hands (partly), so it might not be the worst thing...
