Fourth outing for Tom Holland

Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige said in a statement: “This is a truly phenomenal opening, and we are grateful to audiences everywhere for coming out and experiencing our film the way it was meant to be seen.”
Feige, who produced the film, added: “This debut reflects the enduring power of Marvel’s characters, and the connection they continue to have with fans around the world and, as audiences saw, it sets up exciting things to come.”
