By the way guys I pulled out my magazine and found the exact quote from Watts. It's on page 66 of the "Summer 2017" edition of Empire, and says:

"When Empire first meets Watts on set in Queens, at the end of September 2016, sheltering from the New York rain on a raised platform at 75th Street-Elderts Lane subway station, we wonder if he worried about taking on a character already so familiar. Wasn't this merely a reboot of a reboot?

''"If there was any feeling of that, it was immediately washed away when I started talking with the Marvel crew about what they had in mind," he says. "And then when they told me about introducing him in Civil War, and how Tony Stark was gonna pluck Peter Parker out of obscurity - the eight-year-old Peter had seen Stark say, 'I am Iron Man,' on TV - I was like, 'Oh, I'm so in.' This is going to be a completely different Spider-Man than anyone has ever seen before."''"

I worried I couldn't source this quote as it is hardcopy, but I've found a website which has copied up the piece. http://www.pressreader.com/australia/empire-australasia/20170701/281513636097609
