12 Things We Definitely Know About Future MCU Movies

10. The John Hughes/Harry Potter-Style Spider-Man Universe

Don't expect Peter Parker to arrive as an adult: Marvel are being very clear that he is to be treated as a school kid, and that Homecoming is a school-based movie. It won't be a matter of him growing up forcibly because of his heroism.

And according to Kevin Feige, they've got a very precise vision in mind, borrowing elements from the king of high-school movies, John Hughes:

“It’s the soap opera in high school, and those supporting characters, that are interesting,” said Feige. “Just as we hadn’t seen a heist movie in a long time, or a shrinking movie in a long time, we haven’t seen a John Hughes movie in a long time. Not that we can make a John Hughes movie - only John Hughes could - but we’re inspired by him, and merging that with the superhero genre in a way we haven’t done before excites us.”

Spider-Man also won't be in a hurry to leave school even after the first movie, as he has done in the past two franchises. According to Feige, in a new interview with Collider, the studio are already considering sequels, and doing so in a way that keeps him at high school:

“Should we be able to make more after that? Sure. This is sophomore year, is the next one junior year? Is the next one senior year? Is there a summer break between each of those? I don’t know what, but it was sort of how do we do a journey for Peter not dissimilar for what the students of Hogwarts would go through each of their years, which was one of the early ideas we had for the movies.”
