In a new piece of promotional material for Spider-Man: No Way Home star Tom Holland renames Cyber Monday after everyone’s favorite web-slinger. The newest entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Spider-Man series will stretch far beyond the previous two films in its trilogy by pulling characters from the prior adaptations of Spider-Man starring Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield. The most recent trailer for the film showed off the various villains that are being pulled from across the multiverse to take on Holland’s Spider-Man. Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin, Alfred Molina’s Doc Ock, Thomas Haden Church’s Sandman, Rhys Ifans’ Lizard, and Jamie Foxx’s Electro all made appearances in the trailer, and fans everywhere are expecting to see both Maguire’s and Garfield’s Spider-Men show up as well.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY

The end of the trailer confirmed that tickets for No Way Home will be going on sale Monday, November 29. A voiceover dubbed the date “Spider-Monday,” and people across the internet immediately started dunking on the term. To many, ot seemed like an unnecessary marketing gimmick to promote a film that everyone was going to be seeing anyway. Now that Sony’s marketing for No Way Home is in full swing, they seem to be doubling down on the term in order to promote ticket sales.

In a new video posted on the Spider-Man: No Way Home social media pages, stars Tom Holland, Jacob Batalon, and Zendaya playfully push the Spider-Monday term as a renaming of Cyber Monday, the annual online shopping day following Thanksgiving and Black Friday. In the video, Tom Holland announces that tickets for the new film will be on sale starting on Spider-Monday. Zendaya corrects him to Cyber Monday, and the three of them together have some fun banter over the Spider-Monday name change, ultimately ending in Batalon whispering “It’ll catch on.”

The new advertisement is a fun way to poke fun at the term while also pushing ticket sales. The three stars of the film are as charming as ever, so it’s entertaining to see them bicker a bit about the differences between Spider-Monday and Cyber Monday. Regardless of which name the day goes by, tickets for Spider-Man: No Way Home will be going on sale this Monday, and the film is expected to do big business in presales.

With the potential of seeing the three live-action iterations of Spider-Man on screen together, Spider-Man: No Way Home will be one of the biggest Spider-Man movies to date. The trailer for the film broke viewership records, and the hype behind this film will likely push it to break some pandemic-era box office records too. Tickets are sure to go fast when they go on sale at 12:01 am EST on Monday (or rather, “Spider-Monday”).
