Sony Pictures is functioning overtime to get rid of all remnants of the Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer, which was leaked online on Sunday. Multiple videos were put up by fans on YouTube and other platforms and every one taken down with the message, “This video contains content from Sony Pictures Movie and Shows, who has blocked it on copyright grounds.”
However, some pages on Instagram and other portals are still hosting the leaked trailer. The video is seemingly a recording of a mobile screen, on which the trailer is being played. it’s a large watermark across the screen.
The trailer begins with Peter Parker, played by Tom Holland, managing the aftermath of his identity getting revealed to the globe at the top of Spider-Man: removed from Home. Zendaya’s MJ tries to comfort him but he cannot come to terms with it. He approaches Doctor Strange (played by Benedict Cumberbatch) for an answer and he suggests messing with the multiverse. After some back and forth, he’s sent spiralling through the worlds, meeting characters from older movies like Doctor Octopus, Electro and even Green Goblin. Actors Alfred Molina, Jamie Foxx and Willem Dafoe’s pictures are being shared online.
Fans were hoping for an improved quality video but are excited regardless. Some even joked that they’ll be willing to defend the one accountable for the leak in court. “Not able to understand what are they saying but it’s epic,” commented one.
On the large screen, Tobey Maguire had first played Peter Parker in filmmaker Sam Raimi’s trilogy — Spider-Man (2002), Spider-Man 2 (2004) and Spider-Man 3 (2007). He was later followed by Andrew Garfield, who starred because the superhero in two movies — The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) and also the Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014). it had been earlier rumoured that both of them will appear in No Way Home.
Tom Holland later took over the part and made his unveiling with Marvel’s Captain America: war, before happening to headline his stand-alone films. No Way Home will release in December.
