Everyone is back in New York and while Spider-Man is resting near Madison Square Garden, a news alert starts on the big screens. It plays a video message Mysterio left before he died saying “Spider-Man is attacking for some reason”, “He has already weaponized some Stark technology”, and “He’s saying he’s going to be the new Iron Man. No one else!”. We then see heavily doctored footage from a moment earlier in the film where Edith warns of significant casualties from a drone attack. In which Peter responds “I don’t care, execute! Execute them all!”. It is then revealed that J. Jonah Jameson (played by J.K. Simmons from the Raimi Spider-Man trilogy) from the Daily Bugle is the source of the clips. The broadcast then switches back to Quinton Beck who reveals Spider-man to be Peter Parker.

“The Jungle Book” is an all-new, live-action epic adventure about Mowgli, a man-cub raised by a family of wolves. But Mowgli finds he is no longer welcome in the jungle when fearsome tiger Shere Khan, who bears the scars of Man, promises to eliminate what he sees as a threat. Urged to abandon the only home he’s ever known, Mowgli embarks on a captivating journey of self-discovery, guided by panther-turned-stern mentor Bagheera, and the free-spirited bear Baloo. Along the way, Mowgli encounters jungle creatures who don’t exactly have his best interests at heart, including Kaa, a python whose seductive
voice and gaze hypnotizes the man-cub, and the smooth-talking King Louie, who tries to coerce Mowgli into giving up the secret to the elusive and deadly red flower: fire.
