The photos surfaced atJust Jared, featuring our first look atTom Holland,Zendaya ColemanandTony Revolori. We don’t know much about what was being filmed today, but one of Marvel’s other filmmakers,James Gunn, shared a new photo with himself,Tom HollandandChris Pratt, along with a message wishing the production the best of luck. Here’s what the filmmaker had to say on Facebook below.
“Many blessings today to the star ofSpider-Man: Homecoming,Tom Holland, and the film’s director,Jon Watts(standing in here for Jon is some dude that was passing by), as they begin their shoot in Atlanta just as we are ending ours. I don’t think we could pass the Marvel baton to two nicer, better guys who care more about what they’re doing. Kill it!”
