"It's a big day here at Sony," Sony Pictures Motion Pictures Group Chairman Tom Rothman said yesterday. "I've worked with a number of up-and-coming directors who have gone on to be superstars and believe that Jon is just such an outstanding talent. For Spidey himself, we saw many terrific young actors, but Tom's screen tests were special. All in all, we are off to a roaring start."
Holland's first film as Peter Parker will land in theaters on July 28, 2017, and will be directed by Jon Watts.
