The latest adventure of the web-slinger is upon us, as Spider-Man: Far From Home hits theaters tomorrow. In a recent interview with BET, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige was asked if he felt nervous about the release of Far From Home following the success of Sony’s Into The Spider-Verse and how the decision to introduce Mysterio was something they ended up being thankful for.
“I loved Spider-Verse and thought it was great. I wasn’t nervous, but I was thankful that we went with Mysterio when we were deciding what villain to use. We wanted to do a villain that hadn’t been seen before. And Mysterio was high on the list. There were some questions about his powers and is it too confusing and the illusions and things like that. [But] we were like, no, that’s what would be fun. I saw Spider-Verse and said thank God we went with something daring and complex. If it had just been an average Spider-Man villain chasing him around buildings and trying to hit him with a blast, it would have seemed really lame next to Spider-Verse.”
