Spider-Man: Homecoming has officially released its trailer, eagerly awaited by fans. The positive reception from the audience indicates a strong interest, especially with Tom Holland portraying the teenage hero.
To boost confidence in this beloved franchise, Marvel has confirmed that Spider-Man: Homecoming 2 is set to hit theaters on July 5, 2019, nearly two years after the release of the first film.
This announcement has truly excited fans, who are wondering, “If the movie isn’t good, how could they dare to greenlight a sequel?”
However, for viewers who are skeptical, this announcement may not hold much weight, especially considering how studios have recently leveraged teaser campaigns to build hype even before a film’s initial release. Such practices are seen as a way to maintain engagement and reassure the audience, despite the film not being out yet.
An example of this was The Amazing Spider-Man 2 from Sony, which, despite its uncertain success, had already planned for sequels 3 and 4 before its release. Ultimately, however, the film underperformed, leading to fan disappointment and Sony’s decision to abandon those sequel plans.
Thus, it seems we will have to wait until Spider-Man: Homecoming is released to determine if it’s a hit or merely riding on Marvel’s established reputation.
