"Everything there is very beautiful. I am very keen to travel all over India," Hollywood actor Tom Holland said. After the huge success of the superhero film Spider-Man: No Way Home, Holland's Uncharted is set for release on February 18.
Oscar nominations will be announced on February 8. While Spider-Man: No way Home has raked in more than USD 1 billion in worldwide box office collections, it will be interesting to see if it lands any nominations for the Academy Awards.
"I thought Mark Wahlberg was driving me back to my house for other reasons than just being a gentleman. I didn't know, it's Hollywood baby... who knows what's going to happen," quips Tom Holland.
Spider-Man: No Way Home VFX supervisor Chris Waegner opens on the challenges on making the three Spider-Men look different and the movie trailer 'goof-up' in which returning actors Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire were edited out.
SpiderMan No Way Home, not only brought back the villains of the franchise but Spider-Mans from the previous films, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield. The makers kept denying the reunion of the trio in the Tom Holland starrer making fans more anxious.
As fans continue to argue who the best web-slinging superhero is among Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland, a deleted scene from The Amazing Spider-Man 2 with an alternate ending has gone viral on the Internet. After watching the video, fans are convinced that if this scene was included in the movie, the ranking of Spider-Man films would have changed and Andrew Garfield starrer would have gained many more fans.
The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) has announced that Tom Holland's superhero film Spider-Man: No Way Home won't be considered for any awards after failing to meet "eligibility criteria".
Toby Maguire played Peter Parker from 2002 to 2004; Andrew Garfield took over as the web-slinger superhero in a franchise reboot from 2012 to 2014. Tom Holland made his first on-screen appearance as Spider-Man in 2016.
The winter 2021 season kickstarted with 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' in India with phenomenal advance bookings, a day before the worldwide release. Shows were programmed as early as 4.15 a.m. even on Thursday and were sold out in minutes, which showed the huge craze among Spider-Man fans wanting to watch their favourite superhero on the big screen.
Spider-Man No Way Home's runaway success is welcome news to the exhibition industry, which is still struggling to come back after Covid upended the theatrical landscape. Tom Holland starrer has become the biggest film of 2021 raking in the moolah at the ticket window.
Look for 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' to add another $48 million to its bounty this weekend. That should push the film's stateside gross to over $615 million and enable it to supplant 'Incredibles 2' to become the 10th highest-grossing domestic release in history.
In the past year, many films drew audiences back to theatres despite the many challenges that the pandemic imposed in terms of an occupancy limit in theatres, social distancing protocols and a lot more. Here are some films that brought audiences back to theatres in 2021 and reminded them of the joys of big-screen entertainment.
With USD 587.1 million from 61 overseas markets, 'Spider-Man' has grossed USD 1.05 billion globally, making it the highest earner of the pandemic. It's the first film of the pandemic to cross USD 1 billion and the second-fastest film ever to do so — and this without the benefit of China release.
"I just wanted to quickly backtrack on what I said. You asking me about the Oscars -- you're the first person to bring that up -- and I'm sitting here going, 'Of course I would host the f------ Oscars!' " said Tom Holland, adding, "I just went to the bathroom and I was looking at myself in the mirror and I was like, 'What kind of f------ idiot wouldn't host the Oscars?' "
Despite facing tough competition from Allu Arjun's Pushpa, 'Spider-Man No Way Home' remains on the top for the audiences. Directed by Jon Watts, "Spider-Man: No Way Home" marks the return of Tom Holland as the titular web-slinger after playing the character in 2017's 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' and 'Spider-Man: Far From Home' as well as three Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movies.
Though she says that Marvel Studios simply asked to use her image in the feature, Lexi Rabe was spotted in Atlanta during the time the Spider-Man: No Way Home was filming in the same location, so there is also the chance that she was brought in to create some new scenes.
Spider-Man: No Way Home' starts from where the previous installment 'Spider-Man: Far From Home' had ended as his identity as Spider-Man is revealed at the end of 2019 film. Peter Parker seeks the help of Doctor Strange played by Benedict Cumberbatch. But his indecision instead opens the multiverse and unleashes a suite of villains from previous 'Spider-Man' franchises. Now, it is ruling the Indian Box Office.
"It was easily the best domestic opening weekend turnout of any movie in pandemic times. Prior to this weekend, no other Covid-era film had been able to cross even $00 million in a single weekend," states report.
