It was no mystery that the Spider-Man: Homecoming poster got a lot of bashing from everyone after it came out, and even Robert Downey Jr. is in on the joke. Check out this "Tony Stark" version of the poster which just has RDJ as every character on the poster.
What's funny is that this feels like something Tony Stark himself would definitely pull off if Peter Parker did get his own movie made. So far we've been seeing so much of Tony having his fun with Peter, and the NBA ads only added to the Stark-Pranks-Parker list.
When the poster was first released, a lot of criticism went to how much attention was being given to Tony Stark instead of Peter Parker, with Stark being in the poster twice as Iron Man and himself, and his face literally bigger than Peter's. Some fans are even calling this movie Iron Man 4 as a lot of the ads seem to want to emphasize Tony Stark's involvement with the story.
Hopefully Spider-Man still takes full spotlight in the movie because, though I love RDJ's Tony Stark, I'm really excited to see this version of Peter Parker come to form. Such a shame that all the trailers literally gave away the entire plot of the movie.
Spider-Man: Homecoming comes out July 7.
