Spider-Man will join the likes of Captain America, Iron Man, Black Widow, and other familiar Avengers onscreen next year during his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in Captain America: Civil War.

Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige confirmed Spidey's appearance and shared new information about the upcoming standalone Spider-Man film. Holland is expected "immediately" on the Atlanta set of Civil War.

"Well, we're producing it for Sony. It's exciting, and we're treating it like we treat all of our films," Feige said. "To try to make the best version now of Spider-Man and a version of Spider-Man that inhabits this universe that we've created. We're in lockstep with [Sony Motion Picture Group chairman] Tom Rothman and [producer] Amy Pascal at every turn."

Feige then added that part of the agreement made between Sony and Marvel would allow for some of the MCU characters to appear in future Spider-Man films. He did not, however, go into any story specifics or discuss which characters might be featured.

Additionally, Feige spoke about the upcoming Black Panther and Captain Marvel movies, voicing his hopes to have directors attached to the projects by the end of the summer. He spoke to the hope of bringing in minority directors to better represent and portray the on-screen characters.

"It's an issue across the industry, for sure," he said of the lack of female and directors of color in Hollywood. "And the issue is, we need to find the best director for any given movie. And that's really where we always start. If diversity is part of that, it's great. It's important. You will start to see things across the industry as a whole change as more filmmakers come up through the ranks and become part of making movies like this."

Feige then confirmed Selma director Ava DuVernay had been among many of the directors they've met with to discuss the possibility of helming Black Panther: "We've met with her for sure. We've met with a number of people for a number of movies. She has been one of them."

Borrowing from the landmark comic event of the same name, Captain America: Civil War is the first film in Marvel's phase three plan in the Cinematic Universe. Yesterday, it was announced that Tom Holland would play Spidey in the upcoming movies (including Civil War), and he later showed us some of his moves on Instagram. Civil War will debut in theaters on May 6, 2016.
