A lot of the Easter eggs in this movie just started by rewatching the movies. So it's this thing where, because it's not completely figured out, that you can just go back and basically write fan fiction for those movies, then the fan fiction becomes reality. 'Oh, what about after the Avengers battle, who would clean that stuff up?' Because they mention damage control at one point in the movie. I was watching all these other movies and being like, 'What if that little kid at the Stark Expo was Peter Parker? In the Iron Man mask.' Like, he'd be about the right age for that. You make the joke about that, but basically when I rewatched all the Marvel movies, I was watching them like that. But Feige hasn't denied it either.Īnd now, Spider-Man: Homecoming director Jon Watts is also confirming the story to Uproxx. The director was asked how it came about, if he was watching the previous Marvel film looking for Easter Eggs to tap into: He then spoke to io9.com and said that Feige didn't confirm it, he took it on himself to do it. He told the Huffington Post that he had just talked to Kevin Feige and that it was true.

And that good authority who confirmed it… Tom Holland himself. The Expo took place in Queens, where Peter is from and the age would be about right from that film in 2010 to Tom Holland / Peter Parker that we were introduced to in Captain America: Civil War. In the second Iron Man adventure’s closing act, the Stark Expo is attacked by the villainous Ivan Vanko and his Hammer Drones. It's been a long held fan theory that the kid was Parker. But now, according to the arachnid actor himself Tom Holland, Spider-Man’s alter ego of Peter Parker has actually been a part of the MCU for quite some time, his introduction being in 2010’s Iron Man 2. We talked about it yesterday, but it's growing.
