MANILA, June 7, 2017 – Your friendly neighborhood hero Spider-Man is coming to Manila – live in person!
Columbia Pictures has just announced today that the official Spider-Man character will be in town this Saturday and Sunday, June 10 and 11, to make live public appearances and engage with fans.
It will be a weekend of pure Spider-Man mania as fans will have rare opportunity to take photos and have selfies with their web-slinging hero.
Right after, Spider-Man will be at the SM Megamall Fashion Hall in the afternoon for a Meet and Greet with fans.
Then on Sunday afternoon, June 11, Spider-Man will swing to Gateway Mall in Araneta Center for another Meet and Greet session.
The Spider-Man character visit is in conjunction with the release of Spider-Man: Homecoming which opens in Philippine cinemas on Thursday, July 6, 2017.
A young Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Tom Holland), who made his sensational debut in Captain America: Civil War, begins to navigate his newfound identity as the web-slinging super hero in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, Peter returns home, where he lives with his Aunt May (Marisa Tomei), under the watchful eye of his new mentor Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.). Peter tries to fall back into his normal daily routine – distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man – but when the Vulture (Michael Keaton) emerges as a new villain, everything that Peter holds most important will be threatened.
Directed by Jon Watts and produced by Kevin Feige and Amy Pascal, the screenplay is by Jonathan Goldstein & John Francis Daley and Jon Watts & Christopher Ford and Chris McKenna & Erik Sommers. Screen story by Jonathan Goldstein & John Francis Daley. Based on the Marvel comic book by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko.
Spider-Man: Homecoming is distributed in the Philippines by Columbia Pictures, local office of Sony Pictures Releasing International.
