‘Spider-Man: Far From Home’ Swings Onto Home Video This Month; Watch a Clip from the Bonus Features

Spider-Man Far From Home post office

Because of the well-publicized falling out between Disney and Sony, it appears that Spider-Man: Far From Home might mark the final time Tom Holland‘s Spider-Man makes an appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. An extended cut of the film is back in theaters now, but for those who don’t want to make the trek to a theater to check it out, the Spidey sequel is swinging onto home video later this month with plenty of bonus features in tow. Get the details below.

Spider-Man: Far From Home hits digital HD on September 17, 2019, and arrives on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack, and DVD on October 1, 2019. The film was almost universally beloved, earning a 90% rating on Rotten Tomatoes from critics and a 95% rating from fans, and it’s easy to see why: Holland and Zendaya are excellent together as Peter Parker and MJ, the film introduces a fun new villain, and it’s full of some game-changing revelations for the MCU – although now fans may never see exactly how those plot points would have played out if Spidey stuck around in the MCU.

Here’s a clip from Peter’s To-Do List, which is being framed as part of an “original short” but seems more like a standard deleted scene from the beginning of the movie:

Whoa, whoa, whoa – I’m sorry, I didn’t realize Peter Parker was such a selfish son of a bitch? I get it, he needs his passport so he can go on vacation with his friends. But what about all those other people who were waiting in line? He’s just going to skip them because he couldn’t manage his time properly? Wait a second, does J. Jonah Jameson have a point? Is Spider-Man a menace? I feel like my world is turned upside down here.

Bonus Materials Include:

  • New Original Short, Peter’s To–Do List: Peter has a few errands to run before he can leave on his class trip.
  • Teachers’ Travel Tips: Mr. Harrington & Mr. Dell present a few tips on how to traverse the European continent.
  • Stepping Up: Explore how Spider-Man was introduced in the MCU, the ways Tom Holland transformed the character of Peter Parker, and what the future holds for Spider-Man.
  • Suit Up: The suit doesn’t make the hero – but it does play a big role in who they are and who they can become. This piece examines all of Peter’s different suits in the movie, and with behind the scenes footage, we see why some suits are better than others.
  • Far, FAR, Far from Home: The film’s illustrious locations serve story points and establish tone, but they’re also amazing to travel to! Hear from the cast on their experiences filming on-location.
  • It Takes Two: A special look at the chemistry between Jon Watts and Tom Holland.
  • Fury & Hill: MCU stalwarts Cobie Smulders and Samuel L. Jackson are back as Agent Maria Hill & Nick Fury!
  • The Ginter-Riva Effect: A look at the villain sub-plot and how William Ginter-Riva ties Spider-Man: Far From Home all the way back to the beginning of the MCU.
  • Thank You, Mrs. Parker: A look at Marisa Tomei’s reimagining of Aunt May, from Homecoming to Far From Home.
  • The Brother’s Trust: A quick look into some of the amazing work Tom Holland and his brothers have done through their charity, The Brothers Trust.
  • The Jump Off: Interviews with the cast & crew take us through all of the amazing stunts of Far From Home.
  • Now You See Me: We examine the evolution of Mysterio and why Jake Gyllenhaal was the perfect fit for the role.
  • Stealthy Easter Eggs: Allow E.D.I.T.H. to reveal some of the hidden Easter Eggs you may have missed!
  • Select Scene Pre – Vis: A side by side comparison of the Pre-Vis with the film
  • Gag Reel & Outakes
  • Never-Before-Seen Alternate & Extended Scenes

It’s unclear if these “never-before-seen alternate & extended scenes” are part of the same footage that’s been added to the movie in its current extended theatrical form, or if they truly are brand new edits that fans can’t see until this release drops.

Be sure to check out our spoiler-heavy interview with director Jon Watts if you haven’t already.

Tom Holland returns as everyone’s favorite web-slinger in SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME, the next chapter after Spider-Man: Homecoming. Our friendly neighborhood wall-crawler decides to join his best friends Ned, MJ, and the rest of the gang on a European vacation. However, Peter’s plans to leave super heroics behind for a few weeks are quickly scrapped when he begrudgingly agrees to help Nick Fury uncover the mystery of several elemental creature attacks! Spider-Man and Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal) join forces to fight the havoc unleashed across the continent but all is not as it seems.

Get a Sneak Peek at the New Footage from ‘Spider-Man: Far From Home’ Extended Cut, Now in Theaters

spider-man far from home extended cut

Little did we know, when Spider-Man: Far From Home hit theaters back in June, that it may be the last we see of Tom Holland‘s Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But while the fate of our favorite webslinger hangs in the air in the aftermath of the messy Disney-Sony feud, we’re going to get four more minutes of Holland as Spider-Man in the MCU. Some of the four new minutes of unseen footage can be seen in the new Spider-Man Far From Home extended cut teaser below.

Spider-Man Far From Home Extended Cut Teaser

The new teaser doesn’t show much, though it does give us a glimpse of the “new scenes and action sequences” promised with the Spider-Man: Far From Home extended cut. One scene includes Peter sending a small spider drone-bug from his backpack to crawl across a desk and press a button, while an extended cut of Spider-Man’s early fight in his Iron Spider suit is teased.

The extended cut of Spider-Man: Far From Home is playing in theaters through Labor Day, and features approximately four additional minutes of “never-before-seen action sequences.” The extended cut, which was announced earlier this month, is playing in theaters in the U.S. and Canada and will also be available in IMAX and large formats in select locations. On Thursday, the extended cut was released to 2,781 locations (233 IMAX and 200 large formats), according to Forbes, and expands today to 3,162 locations (233 IMAX and 200 large formats).

Sony is likely hoping for a box office boost from this Spider-Man: Far From Home re-release, boosting it further up the list of highest-earning films in U.S. history (at $380.2 million, it currently sits at No. 42). With this re-release, if public opinion hasn’t soured over the dissolution of the Sony-Marvel deal, it could push Spider-Man: Far From Home over films like  The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, Transformers: Dark of the Moon and another 2019 Marvel film, Captain Marvel.

The Spider-Man: Far From Home extended cut is playing in theaters now.
