Spider-Man has been spotted in Germany!

Yes, you read that right, Tom Holland has been spotted taking photographs with fans in Leipzig, which is where Marvel's Captain America: Civil War is currently shooting. Is he there to join the shoot or just spectate? Well, according to ComicBook, Holland has in fact joined the cast on set and is expected to film throughout this week, which would likely confirm rumors that suggested Peter Parker is a bigger part of the story than fans were initially led to believe.

In a press release, presumably released at the D23 Expo, Holland was officially listed as a member of the cast of Captain America: Civil War, which would mark the first time Marvel/Disney has officially acknowledged his presence in the highly anticipated sequel. Check out this tweet below:

Additionally, in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly

to promote his winter release Ron Howard's In The Heart Of The Sea, which also stars Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Holland made his first public comments about landing the role of Spider-Man and like nearly everyone Marvel's cast before him, he was fairly vague. Read what he said on the right -->

Finally, considering the fact that, during Marvel's D23 presentation, Kevin Feige revealed that Captain America: Civil War would wrap sometime within the week, chances are good they're currently filming the film's finale and/or final battle and if Holland is in attendance, chances are even better that Spider-Man is somehow involved in that sure-to-be epic finale. What do you guys think? Sound off with your thoughts in the usual spot and be sure to check out Holland with a fan in the photos below!

“Captain America: Civil War” picks up where “Avengers: Age of Ultron” left off, as Steve Rogers leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain.

Captain America: Civil War will feature:
Directors: Anthony & Joe Russo
Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/Captain America
Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man
Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow
Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier
Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson/Falcon
Paul Bettany as The Vision
Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton/Hawkeye
Don Cheadle as Jim Rhodes/War Machine
Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch
Paul Rudd as Scott Lang/Ant-Man
Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa/Black Panther
Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter/Agent 13
Daniel Brühl as Baron Helmut Zemo
Frank Grillo as Brock Rumlow/Crossbones
William Hurt as General Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross
Martin Freeman in an undisclosed role
Tom Holland as Peter Parker/Spider-Man
Captain America: Civil War hits theaters May 6, 2016

I expected some sort of Spider-Man news or concept art from D23. This was supposed to be Marvel's SDCC.

blackandyellow - 8/17/2015, 7:45 AM

I've had to give up Sunday Fundays except for special occasions. I can't take the Monday hangovers anymore.

Holland is gonna own the role

hufflepuff69 - 8/17/2015, 10:52 AM

Indy - 8/17/2015, 10:52 AM

He look like he could be a good Peter Parker at first I was little meh on the casting but now Color me excited!

Spideyshawn - 8/17/2015, 10:53 AM

IAmNotGr00t - 8/17/2015, 10:55 AM

"Talks Spider-Man for the first time". This clickbait is such bullshit.

MrCBM56 - 8/17/2015, 10:55 AM

Noice. I have 100% faith in Marvel and this kid. Too stoked for Civil War, more than I may admit. Phase 3 is about to be insane.

It doesn't matter B.

Marvel won D23. It's like DC wasn't even there.

Stop kicking Gusto when the poor dude is already down!

TheRationalNerd - 8/17/2015, 11:02 AM

What if Martin Freeman's character ends up being Red Skull in disguise?

Kyos - 8/17/2015, 11:04 AM

I'm starting to get pretty hyped for this movie - that cast is just [frick]ing awesome!

For some reason it's really the inclusion of Scott Lang that changed my feelings from "pretty interested" to "can't wait". Ant-Man did such a good job of making the MCU feel both bigger and smaller (puns galore), and seeing him (and a kid Spidey) interact with guys like Cap and Tony could be great!
