Spider-Man: Homecoming Writers To Return For The Sequel

Sony is looking to the future as screenwriters Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers are in final talks to return to the Spider-Man: Homecoming sequel, according to The Hollywood Reporter:

"Sony and Marvel are hoping to keep many of the creative elements of Homecoming together and are already in talks to have Jon Watts return to the director's chair. Tom Holland is set to return as the web-crawling hero."

It makes sense that they would want to keep the same crew. Spider-Man: Homecoming made $319 million domestically at the box office, $737 million worldwide, and was almost universally praised by critics and fans alike. Jon Watts is in talks to return as director, as well. From THR:

"McKenna and Sommers hail from the comedy and animation world, having been writer-producers on American Dad, Community and The Mindy Project. The duo worked on The Lego Batman Movie and impressed both Sony and Marvel with their Homecoming work, who then also hired them for the studios' Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and Ant-Man and the Wasp movies, respectively."

Spider-Man: Homecoming 2 is due out July 5th, 2019, and will be the first movie to come out post-Avengers 4, and will kick off Marvel Phase 4.

Summary: Following the events of Captain America: Civil War (2016), Peter Parker attempts to balance his life in high school with his career as the web-slinging superhero Spider-Man.

Spider-Man: Homecoming stars Tom Holland, Robert Downey Jr., Marisa Tomei, Donald Glover, Zendaya, Tony Revolori, and Michael Keaton. Swing on down to your local theater and check it out now.
