To clarify some of the rumors circulating on Spider-Man's return to the MCU, producer Kevin Feige represents Marvel in a recent interview with Collider to address how they will be moving forward.

Feige goes on record to state that the new Spider-Man will indeed embellish the Peter Parker character, and that they will also be casting very young actor for the role (age 15-16). He says that this will enable them to tell some stories that have not yet been brought to the big screen:

"We want to play with Spider-Man in the high school years because frankly there've been five Spider-Man films and the amazing thing about it is, even though there've been five Spider-Man films, there are so many things from the comics that haven't been done yet. Not just characters or villains or supporting characters, but sides to his character. The most obvious being the 'young, doesn't quite fit in' kid before his powers, and then the fella that puts on a mask and swings around and fights bad guys and doesn't shut up, which is something we want to play with and we're excited about."

Feige goes on to compare their new character with the last interpretation.

"I think it was midway through the first film that he graduated high school. At the beginning of the second Marc Webb film, he graduated high school. And some of my favorite Spider-Man arcs and Spider-Man stories, he's in high school for a lot of it. We want to explore that. That also makes him very, very different from any of our other characters in the MCU, which is something else we want to explore: how unique he is when now put against all these other characters."

The Spider-Man reboot film is slated to appear in 2017.
