It must have been cloud nine if I would be invited to attend a red carpet premier of one of my favorite superhero film – Spiderman. Most specially seeing the actors of the film watching on the same moment as you are on the same venue. Lucky! Well a few Filipinos social media have done that, and that doesn’t include me. But it is too bad to dream, right? Maybe soon.
HOOQ, the largest video-on-demand service in Southeast Asia recently brought Filipino social media superstars Donnalyn Bartolome and Wil Dasovich to the world premiere of Spider-Man Homecoming last June 28, 2017 at the TCL Chinese Theaters in Hollywood, U.S.A. for a once in a lifetime experience.
Joining them were Sheila Paul, Head of Marketing for HOOQ Philippines and YouTube producer/manager Jako de Leon.
The Philippine entourage was able to meet Spider-Man cast members Laura Harrier who plays Spider-Man’s love interest Liz, as well as Filipino-American actor Jacob Batalon in a breakthrough role as Spider-Man’s best friend Ned.
They were also able to meet internet superstar Zach King, Orange is the New Black Star Selenis Leyva, US Champion ice dancers Alex and Maia Shibutani among others.
Spider-Man Homecoming will be released in the Philippines on July 6, 2017.
The film stars Tom Holland, Michael Keaton, Jon Favreau, Donald Glover, Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Laura Harrier, Tyne Daly, Marisa Tomei, and Robert Downey Jr.
In Spider-Man: Homecoming, Peter Parker tries to balance high school life with being a superhero.
Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, young Peter Parker returns home to live with his Aunt May. Under the watchful eye of mentor Tony Stark, Parker starts to embrace his newfound identity as Spider-Man. He also tries to return to his normal daily routine — distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just a friendly neighborhood superhero. Peter must soon put his powers to the test when the evil Vulture emerges to threaten everything that he holds dear.
To get ready for his new adventures, revisit all of the past movies of the webcrawler including Spider-Man 1, 2 and 3 as well as The Amazing Spider-Man 1 and 2 all exclusively on HOOQ.
