History Film / SpiderManHomecoming

->'''Tony:''' Don't do anything I ''would'' do. And definitely don't do anything I ''wouldn't'' do. There's a little grey area in there, and that's where ''you'' operate.\\

* {{Main/Reconstruction}}: The film reconstructs Spider-Man's interaction with New York, whereas in the comics often makes Spider-Man a subject of disdain thanks to the Daily Bugle. Here Peter is a local superhero in a vibrant New York whose troubles come from wanting to become something more than just a local hero and attempting to stop a weapons deal only to find himself out of his depth and unintentionally being a Spider Menace. However, he still saves the day at the end, and is beginning to achieve fame once more.

** Creator/JenniferConnelly voices "Karen", the A.I. in Peter's suit, which is an amusing nod to her husband Creator/PaulBettany's role as the voice of the J.A.R.V.I.S. A.I. in the ''Film/IronMan'' trilogy.

* NowAllowedToHug: when Tony is dropping Peter off at his home, he reaches past Peter to open the door. Peter mistakes this for a hug, and Tony tells him they're not there yet. This would become a BrickJoke in ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' where Tony fully embraces Peter in a hug after the latter had been blipped for five years.

* TheVillainKnowsMoment: There's a scene where Adrian Toomes, aka the Vulture learns that Peter Parker is Spider-Man, shown in a EurekaMoment. Shortly afterwards, he has his daughter Liz Allen get out of the car so that he can give Peter "the dad talk". This is where he reveals that he's figured it out and offers to spare Peter and his loved ones as gratitude for saving Liz, but only if he stays out of his way.

Following his "field trip" battling the Avengers in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', UsefulNotes/NewYorkCity native Peter Parker continues trying to [[WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld juggle his dual life]] as an OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent at Midtown School of Science and Technology, and the crime-fighting hero Comicbook/SpiderMan. Now Peter must navigate impressing his new benefactor [[Film/IronMan Tony Stark]], getting ready for his [[HighSchoolDance high school's homecoming dance]], catching [[BankRobbery bank robbers]], finishing his homework on time, rescuing people from building fires, and learning how to talk to girls. Peter's greatest challenge lies in stopping a sinister criminal ring using an [[ClothesMakeTheSuperman experimental flight suit]] and other high tech equipment to terrorize the city, despite Tony's concerns that he's too young to be putting himself in harm's way.

** Anne-Marie Hoag, Director of Damage Control, is played by Creator/TyneDaly, whose brother Creator/TimDaly is well known for voice acting a different [[Franchise/{{Superman}} superhero]] with whom leaving damages and debris also come as a frequent part of the job.

** [[Music/ChildishGambino Donald Glover]] originally campaigned to play Peter Parker in ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan'' which was a contributing factor in the creation of ComicBook/MilesMorales. Glover later voiced Miles in Season 3 of ''[[WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderMan2012 Ultimate Spider-Man]]''. The character he plays in the film turns out to be Miles' uncle, Aaron Davis, a.k.a. The Prowler.

** Peter's best friend Ned has nothing in common with the original Ned Leeds from the comic outside of his first name and instead seems to be based on Ganke Lee, ComicBook/MilesMorales' best friend from ''ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan'' -- Asian, nerdy, chubby, knows Spider-Man's secret identity and acts as his confidant, and is a big fan of Franchise/{{LEGO}}. WordOfGod has even [[http://www.ign.com/articles/2017/04/03/17-things-we-learned-on-the-set-of-spider-man-homecoming?page=2 commented on this]].

* {{Expy}}: [[FatBestFriend Ned]] is heavily based on Ganke Lee from the ComicBook/MilesMorales leg of the ''ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan'' continuity.

** During the closing credits, Peter's Spider-Man mask [[https://www.reddit.com/r/marvelstudios/comments/8norsn/the_end_of_spiderman_homecoming_briefly_features/?ref=share&ref_source=embed&utm_content=title&utm_medium=post_embed&utm_name=541373b5d2094cafa2b229e730d3232c&utm_source=embedly&utm_term=8norsn transitions into the one]] worn by ComicBook/MilesMorales.

** As he is a CompositeCharacter, Ned has nothing in common with the original Ned Leeds from the comics outside of his name. Comic Ned was originally portrayed as a Caucasian reporter with a slender built that worked for the Daily Bugle. He was also initially Peter's rival for the love of Betty Brant, and had never attended the same high school as Peter due to being an adult that was older than him through a few years, nor has he ever discovered Spider-Man's secret identity. Here, Movie Ned is portrayed as a fat Asian student who attends the same high school as Peter in addition to being his best friend and the second person to discover his secret identity. This makes him far more similar to ComicBook/MilesMorales' MuggleBestFriend Ganke Lee than to Comic Ned.

** The film's biggest change is the SettingUpdate, which is far more comprehensive than even the Ultimate run (which brought in more than a few GrandfatherClause[[note]]Such as Peter attending the same public school as a wealthy kid like Harry Osborn and not dealing with issues of gentrification until ComicBook/MilesMorales showed up[[/note]]). Ned is more or less a CanonForeigner who owes far more to Miles Morales's Ganke, Liz Allan is PromotedToLoveInterest[[note]]She had a crush on him in the comics, but nothing really came of it.[[/note]] and given a RaceLift, Flash Thompson is Peter's [[AdaptationalIntelligence intellectual rival]] instead of a JerkJock, and Michelle [[spoiler:may or may not be poised to become an alternate-universe Mary Jane Watson.]] Many of these seem to be done to distinguish them from the two previous series as well as highlight the sociological changes in contemporary teen culture and the logistics of Peter going to a magnet school.

* SkyHeist: One of these forms the climax of the movie with Vulture attempting to use his flight suit to rob a plane carrying [[spoiler:Avengers weaponry that they were moving to their new West Coast headquarters.]]

''Spider-Man: Homecoming'' is a 2017 {{superhero}} film directed by Creator/JonWatts, and the sixteenth entry of the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse as well as the fourth installment of Phase 3. ''Homecoming'' marks Creator/TomHolland's second turn as ComicBook/SpiderMan in the MCU and, as the first movie in the Film/SpiderManHomecomingTrilogy, is the second ContinuityReboot of the ''Spider-Man'' films. In a first for the MCU, ''Homecoming'' is a co-production between Creator/{{Disney}}'s Creator/MarvelStudios and Creator/{{Sony}}'s Creator/ColumbiaPictures division.[[note]]In the agreement between the two companies, Sony will financially back and receive all profits from all solo ''Spider-Man'' movies. Marvel, in return, retains full creative control and will keep the profits from any team-up films that the character of Spider-Man appears in.[[/note]] On top of all of that, it's also the sixth overall installment in the ''Franchise/SpiderMan'' film franchise.
