Spider-Man: Brand New Day took ‘a lot of finishing moves’ directly from Insomniac’s games, Tom Holland reveals

We’ve come full circle, folks. Once upon a time, video game adaptations of all sorts of movies were quite a popular thing, and even in cases where it wasn’t a direct adaptation, movies tended to have a lot of cultural influence over the gaming world, so much so that we’d get a lot of film-inspired characters, scenes, dialogues, and so on.

But now, according to Tom Holland, it’s video games that are making a tremendous influence on movies, specifically related to the new Spider-Man movie that took a lot of inspiration from Insomniac’s takes on the character.
