While Marvel has been really careful in delivering their news, a slip of mouth seemed to have revealed a very crucial detail about the upcoming "Captain America 3: Civil War."
With the determination to surpass "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" Marvel is reportedly going to finally introduce Spider-Man in Steve Rogers' world.
In addition to the already star studded line up that includes Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johanssona and Chris Evans, the movie is apparently going to include Asa Butterfield in the list.
"While speaking at his spotlight panel during Special Edition: NYC, longtime Marvel writer Brian Michael Bendis let slip that Spider-Man will be appearing in "Captain America: Civil War," adding an "allegedly" after the fact," Comic Book Resources noted.
Bendis said, "The same thing happened when they heard Spider-Man is going to be in ['Captain America: Civil War'] the movie," Bendis said. However, panel host Ryan Penagos shook his head in disagreement after hearing Bendis statement, which made the writer retract.
"Allegedly," Bendis added. "Or he's going to be in 'Batman v Superman.'"
Prior to this development, Spider-Man has been actually previously speculated to join "Captain America 3: Civil War," making it his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut.
While it has not been confirmed or denied yet, Marvel Studios announcement of a joint agreement with Sony Pictures sparked the rumors.
Meanwhile a new solo "Spider-Man" movie is confirme to be in the works for Marvel and Sony.
Apparently, Asa Butterfield has been shortlisted for the role to portray the younger Peter Parker, who's supposed to be attending high school. The film is reportedly slated for July 28, 2017 release.
In other "Captain America 3: Civil War" news, there are reports claiming that Samuel L. Jackson will no longer be included in the lineup.
According to Christian Today, "Fans won't be seeing the eye-patched hero Nick Fury in action, popping in and out in the film."
In addition, Samuel L. Jackson reportedly confirmed the news of his exit from the movie.
"I was surprised I wasn't in Civil War, because the Russo Brothers told me I was. I don't know what's going on," Jackson told IGN.
And while he's not sure why his character was not included in the upcoming "Captain America 3: Civil War," Jackson tried to figure out the reason why.
"I can't figure that out, but I'm not [in it]," Jackson initially told Collider. He then went on to say, "I guess I'm still out there, trying to figure out what happened to S.H.I.E.L.D. and who these other people are."
"Captain America 3: Civil War" will be released on May 6, 2016.
