Well, it looks like one more of the #Avengers will be "coming home" in #SpiderManHomecoming. As the latest film prepares to web sling onto our screens and we await the latest trailer, it sounds like #PeterParker will see another familiar face on his next adventure.

We have already seen #RobertDowneyJr putting his mentoring skills to the test for Homecoming, but the latest trailer also throws another familiar face into the mix (well, sort of). That's right, #ChrisEvans will showcase his rugged good looks as #CaptainAmerica for at least part of the next live-action Spider-Man film.

When we last left the Cap, he and Tony Stark weren't exactly on speaking terms. The Avengers seemed disbanded and Rogers had thrown down his signature shield, so how can he appear in Homecoming? Well, don't expect to see his name in lights among the big stars of the show.

Although #TomHolland's Parker seemed bowled over when he met Captain America in Civil War, he was soon tasked with tying up his comrades, which would put a strain on anyone's relationship. Although the star-spangled hero appears in the trailer, it doesn't quite unite the Avengers ahead of #InfinityWar. There's an old adage that says "never meet your heroes," and the saying seems to ring true in the latest Homecoming trailer, as Spidey seems none too fussed with meeting his idol again, firmly flying the Team Stark colors.

Returning from bratwurst and bierkellers in Germany with #IronMan, Peter is seen to adjust to life back in New York. Settling into normal school life, Peter's class is watching a video when a star-spangled Captain America is shown on the TV screen. While the rest of the class react with all the boyish glee of Civil War Peter, Web Head looks up with a bored expression on his face. Pffft, a video?, who needs that when you've met the real thing?

Blink and you'll Chris it.

It is still unclear whether Evans was asked to film a whole new scene or whether it is a cobbling together of old footage, but as sure as day is day, Captain America will at least cameo in Homecoming. This isn't the first time 35-year-old Evans has appeared outside the adventures of Red Skull and Bucky, the actor had a miniscule part in Thor: The Dark World when trickster Loki changed his face.

With a cast that is already bulging at the seams, including Michael Keaton, a gang of Shockers, and the Mr. Miyagi skills of Stark, perhaps it is for the best that Captain America only appears in a minor capacity. Better sit this one out, Cap, it looks like Tony's got the bromance aspect of this one covered!
