Housed in a well-maintained old fort, it could definitely use some refurbishing and some more engaging exhibits.

I have a particular interest in history museums because a) I think it’s important to have some background and context when you travel b) I’m a history nerd and c) they are difficult to do well since good history requires a lot of text, which is not well-suited to a museum. I started at the Museu Historico Nacional. On Wednesday I headed back down to Centro to finish my tour. I really am nothing but grateful, and I’ve made friends for life along the way.”) The legacy and future of Spidey rests in Sony’s safe hands.

What this means for the future of Spider-Man remains hazy, beyond the fact that Holland will still be playing the character. (After our time together, Holland also became perhaps the first Marvel exile, when Sony-the corporation that owns the Spider-Man franchise-took Spider-Man back from Marvel, to whom they’d loaned the character in 2015. The second, released this past summer, made more than $1 billion. The first stand-alone Spider-Man film he starred in (he has played the role in five movies: Captain America: Civil War, two Avengers films, and two films of his own) made $880 million. Marvel, in its decade-long takeover of the movies, has revitalized the careers of any number of great actors, and supercharged the burgeoning careers of others, but Holland is perhaps the first wholly made Marvel star. It's a refuge from what has otherwise become of the life of Tom Holland.
