The ultimate Spidey brawl broke out over premiere tickets for “Spider-Man: No Way Home.”
Overly eager fans hoping to score tickets began a brawl at a theater in Cuernavaca, Mexico, according to Spanish newspaper Diario de Morelos, which posted a video of the unruly chaos that erupted.
On “Spider Monday,” fans flocked to purchase tickets for the highly anticipated movie, only for sites to crash and tensions to grow over the Marvel film.
That anxiety to secure tickets spilled out beyond the online ticketing realm, with overeager fans throwing punches in Cuernavaca, which is just south of Mexico City.
Movie-goers were “beaten” at the theater by “young people who wanted to get in line for the pre-sale of Spider-Man: No Way Home,” Diario de Morelos tweeted in Spanish.
In the video, disgruntled fans kicked, punched and even wrestled others to the ground over pre-sale tickets. While the full circumstances of the fights were not revealed, the video clip accumulated more than one million views on social media.
“Spider-Man: No Way Home” follows Peter Parker, played by Tom Holland, after his identity is revealed, inspiring him to seek help from Dr. Strange, played by Benedict Cumberbatch, to cast a spell and erase the event from the public’s memory.
The film is slated to be released on Dec. 17 of this year.
