Spider-Man Avengers: Infinity War

Beware of minor spoilers for SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING. Much like his mentor, it seems that Peter Parker (Tom Holland) is well on his way to collecting more than a few versions of his Spider-Man suit, although I'd imagine that the high-school student isn't keeping his in a high-tech basement. Maybe that will be Tony Stark's (Robert Downey Jr.) next gift to the young hero. With SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING now behind us, we can look forward to Spidey's next appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which will come with AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR. The much-anticipated flick will finally see the heroes of the MCU unite against Thanos (Josh Brolin), and Spider-Man will be needing a little upgrade if he's going to make a difference in the battle.

While speaking with VFX Supervisor Dominik Zimmerle of Trixter, The Art of VFX was able to get a high-res look at Spider-Man's latest suit. Check it out and don't forget, click to embiggen.

You may recognize this suit from the end of SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING, but Peter Parker will finally make use of it in the upcoming AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR. We caught a glimpse of the suit in the AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR trailer, which screened at D23 and Comic-Con, as well as the INFINITY WAR Comic-Con poster. No word on if the Iron-Spider-ish suit also features mechanical legs. Here's what Dominik Zimmerle had to say about Spidey's new outfit.

The new Spider-Man suit was actually designed for one of the next installments of the MCU and models and textures were done by Framestore. We took over the asset and did the lookdev based on provided Concept Art. The Vault itself was created from scratch by us. Our Concept Art department started from the closed outside look of it to define the graphical patterns and structure. Based on that we prepared simplified geometry and approached the interior look from an animation point of view, so how well we could create some more sophisticated opening animation with the available structure. The idea was to have a clean, high tech, presentation Vault for the new suit. It should appear distinctively “Stark” originated. Based on the feedback from the Studio we refined the interior structure and modeled, textured and look deved the Vault

AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR is set for a May 4, 2018 release.
