Tom Holland Has the Perfect Response to Spider-Man’s Return to the MCU

After just about five weeks of being broken up, Marvel Studios and Sony announced today that they've worked things out and have figured out a deal to share Spider-Man between the MCU and Sony's series again. That means we're getting Spider-Man 3 featuring Tom Holland, but one that will presumably still tie into whatever is going on in Phase 4 of the MCU. Most fans so far seem to be pretty psyched about this news, and that includes Holland himself!

The Spidey/Peter Parker actor posted the following on Instagram today:

With Thanos now dead two times over after the events of Avengers: Endgame, fans are trying to guess who will take his place as the next villainous mastermind to threaten the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Tested: The Fastest Broadband for Gaming in the UK

There are over 35 million gamers in the UK, and that figure continues to rise year-on-year. Whether you're playing FIFA, Call of Duty, or Red Dead Redemption, a fast and reliable internet connection is more important than ever when it comes to video games.

Lag and stuttering while gaming can be frustrating, so we recommend taking all the right precautions to ensure you're set up with the perfect broadband package. With games getting more powerful, and 30GB day-one patches becoming normality, it's even more important to ensure your download speeds are up to the task.

ADSL and standard fibre packages (11 - 36Mbps) will do an OK job, but these plans can lack the upload speed and consistency required to achieve uninterrupted online gaming. Larger homes with plenty of electronic devices should definitely consider the top superfast packages (50 - 90Mbps) or even an ultrafast plan if your home is eligible.
