Tom Holland shares first image from Spider-Man 3 and promotes wearing a face mask

‘Wear a mask, I’m wearing two’: Tom Holland shares first look at Spider-Man 3… and promotes safety on set by doubling up on face coverings

Spider-Man 3 was famously told that with great power comes great responsibility.

And Tom Holland clearly took the line to heart while filming as the character amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

The 24-year-old English actor doubled up on face coverings in an Instagram picture that showed him modeling an N95 mask over his Spider-Man costume.

‘Wear a mask, I’m wearing two…’ he captioned the snapshot, which showed him poised in front of a blue screen as if he were about to leap into the air.

Principal photography appears to have begun at some point last month in New York City, according to a report in Screen Rant.

Tom has previously starred as the superhero in two other stand-alone films, Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017 and Spider-Man: Far From Home last year.

The upcoming follow-up does not officially have a title yet and is colloquially referred to as Spider-Man 3, not to be confused with the 2007 film of the same name.

Zendaya will be back in her role as MJ, and last month The Hollywood Reporter revealed Jamie Foxx was negotiating a return as Electro.

Also last month it emerged that Benedict Cumberbatch will return to his Marvel role as Doctor Strange for this movie.

Marisa Tomei who won an Oscar for her legendary comic turn in My Cousin Vinny is reprising her own turn as Spider-Man’s Aunt May.

Along with his stand-alone films Tom has played the character in a string of other Marvel movies including last year’s Avengers: Endgame.

Endgame became the worldwide highest-grossing movie of all time, passing up the previous titleholder Avatar which now has a fleet of sequels in the pipeline.
