Spider-Man: No Way Home is the third Spider-Man Super Hero film
created by Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios, starring Tom Holland,
who plays the role of high-schooler Peter Parker and his alias,
Spider-Man. Spider-Man: Far From Home grossed USD 1.131 billion
worldwide and is the fourth-highest-grossing movie of 2019 and the
25th-highest-grossing movie of all time.
Adam Aron, Chairman of the Board and CEO of AMC, commented: “Our
AMC Theatres guests and our AMC Entertainment shareholders have
been calling for AMC to get into the world of NFTs, and we couldn’t
imagine a more perfect way to start doing so than with our good
friends at Sony Pictures. This is especially the case in that
SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME is one of if not the most anticipated movie
of 2021, and the incredibly talented artists at Cub Studios are
creating more than 100 unique NFTs giving appropriate respect to
this most recent incarnation of the timeless and ever so popular
Spider-Man franchise. For those members of our AMC Stubs A-List,
AMC Stubs Premiere and AMC Investor Connect program who are among
the first to purchase or reserve their ticket to opening day at
AMC, this unprecedented Spider-Man NFT is truly a ticket-purchase
gift like nothing we’ve ever offered before. But with just 86,000
available, they’re going to go very fast. So, my advice is to get
your Spider-Man tickets as quickly as you can.”
