The Rumour: With it being made clear ahead of time that Tony Stark would be helping out Spider-Man, rumour spread that he would end up gifting him the Iron Spider armour, basically making Spidey even stronger and faster than ever.

How Much We Believed It: The Russos themselves encouraged this one by stating that Spidey's suit in the movie would be effects-heavy, and what better reason for that than it having mechanical legs? That said, it seemed a bit much for Spidey's first movie, where Marvel would surely want to play safe and focus on the character's personality and base appearance above all else. 3/10

The Truth: There's no Iron Spider suit in the movie, but we wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if it showed up in the web-slinger's next solo movie, Spider-Man: Homecoming, which will feature Stark in a supporting role.
