Tom Holland’s Classic Spider-Man Costume Screen Time Is Still Shockingly Low After 9 Years In The MCU

Before Tom Holland’s Peter Parker debuts his new costume in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, his classic red-and-blue suit is still the rarest in the MCU. Tom Holland’s Spider-Man is set to wear the definitive version of his iconic costume in Destin Daniel Cretton’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Taking inspiration from their designs, Holland’s Spidey will honor previous Spider-Man actors.

Each live-action Spider-Man has been increasingly creative with his suit design. Tobey Maguire’s Peter Parker barely updated his costume, Andrew Garfield’s Spidey only overhauled it once, and Tom Holland’s Spider-Man has gone through eight different costumes so far. Now, the MCU’s Spider-Man goes back to basics with a self-made version of his classic suit.

Tom Holland’s Classic Red & Blue Costume Has Appeared On Screen For Less Than 25 Minutes

Peter Parker’s “Stark” suit has had very limited screentime. Tom Holland’s Peter Parker only wears his iconic red-and-blue Spider-Man suit for around nine minutes in Captain America: Civil War, no more than fifteen minutes in Spider-Man: Homecoming, and only thirty seconds in Spider-Man: No Way Home. In total, the classic Spider-Man costume doesn’t reach half an hour of screentime across six MCU appearances.

The rest of Tom Holland’s Spider-Man screentime under the mask comprises other variations of his costume. Peter’s homemade suit played a big role in Spider-Man: Homecoming, and the red-and-black upgraded suit starred in both Spider-Man: Far From Home and Spider-Man: No Way Home. Meanwhile, the Iron Spider took center stage in Avengers: Infinity War and Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Peter Parker’s classic costume shared the spotlight with his homemade suit in Spider-Man: Homecoming, and it only appeared in Captain America: Civil War‘s airport battle sequence. Peter’s “final swing” costume from Spider-Man: No Way Home‘s ending is a different suit, but it also counts as a version of his classic suit. Still, it only appears in 0.3% of the movie’s total runtime.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day’s Classic Costume Design & Color Scheme Is A Big Deal For Peter Parker

Spider-Man: Brand New Day marks the first full solo MCU movie where Peter Parker wears a suit of his own. However, Spider-Man’s new MCU costume has a deeper meaning. Until now, the general public has probably ᴀssociated a variety of designs and color schemes with Spider-Man. From now on, Spider-Man’s handcrafted red-and-blue costume will likely be the one the world will forever ᴀssociate with him.

Peter’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day costume will likely become his definitive, long-term look. It represents the culmination of his growth, from a kid relying on Iron Man’s resources to a fully independent superhero. Every step of that journey has been shown on screen. Peter Parker has earned it, and now his suit carries the weight of his entire story.
