Spider-Man: Homecoming reshoots are underway. According to a report by ComicBook.com’s Jay Jayson, the crew for Spidey’s latest film is returning to the Atlanta, Ga., set for reshoots.
Don’t be alarmed, though. It’s not unlike Marvel Studios movies to go through reshoots. In fact, whether the reshoots are for doing new scenes are reworking old ones, just about every Marvel film has gone through reshoots. That’s because the studio schedules reshoots for even its biggest movies before the initial shooting begins.
Here’s what James Gunn, director of the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, had to say about this on Twitter.
Absolutely. I’ve picked up shots in every movie I’ve ever directed, as Marvel has in every movie they’ve ever made, as we go thru editing. https://t.co/NpU2z8Tt5W

We schedule all the actors for reshoots before we ever shoot the movie. https://t.co/HHqTKyG4yK

So it should perhaps come as no surprise that Spider-Man: Homecoming is undergoing reshoots now.
Spider-Man: Homecoming, directed by Jon Watts, stars Tom Holland as Peter Parker/Spider-Man. He is accompanied by Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man, Marisa Tomei as Aunt May and Michael Keaton as the antagonist, the Vulture. Spider-Man: Homecoming is set for a July 7 release date.
