The internet’s finest minds have been attempting to guess the title of the yet-to-be released superhero blockbuster for months now; with both of the two previous entries in the Spider-Man trilogy having “home” be a part of their name, with “Spider-Man: Homecoming” and “Spider-Man: Far From Home”, many fans expected the third film to follow suit.

Of course, Marvel knew this too, and knew that the fans would likely want this trend to continue. They also wanted to join in with the fun of suggesting titles for their own upcoming film. So, they did!

Less than 24 hours before the official title was released, the three lead actors of the film, Tom Holland, Zendaya, and Jacob Batalon teased audiences by posting the so called “official” title on their Instagram pages. The catch?

All three actors posted different titles. Tom Holland claimed the film was named “Spider-Man: Phone Home”, Jacob Batalon announced it was named “Spider-Man: Homewrecker”, and Zendaya said it was named “Spider-Man: Home Slice”.

Of course, this was all a marketing ploy to draw more attention to the actual release of the official title the next day, and it seemed to work! The internet was thrown into a frenzy as fans tried to make sense of the odd situation.

Their posts gained 9.8, 1.3, and 5.6 million likes (respectively). The announcement of the official title then went on to achieve 3 million views, and has now left fans guessing what the title could mean, with many saying it supports the popular fan theory surrounding the inclusion of the multi-verse within the film. Only time will tell…

Since filming began on the superhero flick less than two months ago, Tom Holland, who plays the titular role of the web-slinger, and the rest of the crew from Marvel Studios, have been travelling across the US to various filming locations.

Despite a huge spike in coronavirus cases and deaths in the US, the production has been given the green light to continue filming – but with restrictions on what they can and cannot do.

However, members of the public have been sent into a fury over a certain allowance that was made this week in regard to a specific filming location.

For the previous two movies in the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe)’s spider man trilogy, Marvel has partnered with two local Atlanta high schools for scenes where Spider-Man lives out his daily life as his teenage alter ego, Peter Parker. And that partnership has continued for the third entry in the series.

Under normal circumstances this would be perfectly fine. But as you are probably sick of hearing at this point, these are confusing times (to quote the hulk himself).

Both parents and members of the local community were furious to hear that, while the schools themselves closed to students due to the pandemic, a Hollywood film crew is allowed to film there? It simply doesn’t make sense.

It’s reported that one of the schools was paid roughly $50,000 to allow the production to take place on their site. To a lot of outsiders, it seems like the schools are more interested in cash over preserving the future educations of their students, but that’s just one viewpoint.

As of the time of writing, Marvel Studios have yet to comment. Could production be halted if enough parents complain? Only time will tell…

Now the two smallest, or biggest depending on how you look at it, are returning for a third film under the Ant-Man umbrella. And, like the second film – the Wasp will get equal billing.

According to director Payton Reed, there is a “partnership” with the two heroes. In an interview with Yahoo Entertainment, Reed talks about the importance of the billing as well as the two stars – Paul Rudd (Ant-Man) and Evangeline Lilly (The Wasp).

“They’re a partnership, and she’s a very, very important part of that,” said Reed speaking about the characters as well as the actors. “And that was a very gratifying thing, I guess technically we were the first Marvel movie with a female hero in the title of the movie. Finding that balance in that movie, that’s very important to me because that’s very much a men’s playing field, historically. But that’s really, really changing now in a great way.”

The third installment of the Ant-Man series was first noted in 2018 with Reed signing on in 2019. Reed directed the first two films in the series. Other credits include the Yes Man with Jim Carrey and Bring it On – to name a few.

According to Lilly, during the interview, playing the Wasp has been exciting but she wanted to stay true to the original character. The actress points out that the comic book character was powerful and yet very feminine.

“She is very, very graceful in the comic books. She’s very feminine,” Lilly said. “She’s not a kind of legs apart, grounded, gritty [fighter]. She’s got pointed toes and long limbs and she’s very elegant. And I really wanted to hang onto that. Marvel is very good at modernizing their superheroes, but I always think you want to taste the original 1960s character.” IMDB current lists the movie as being in pre-production with no release date set.
