Spider-Man: Homecoming is in its home stretch. The film's composer has begun scoring the wallcrawler's standalone debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Michael Giacchino, who is best known for his iconic work on ABC's LOST, has previously worked within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, putting together the music for Doctor Strange. Giacchino's impressive resume extends far beyond Marvel Studios projects, however. The musician helmed Rogue One: A Star Wars Story last year and is also the artist behind titles such as Super 8, The Incredibles, Jurassic World, Ratatouille, Cars, Up, Inside Out, Star Trek Beyond, and Tomorrowland.

The composer took to Twitter to share the first look and listen to some of what he and his team have in store for Spider-Man: Homecoming as they began recording on Tuesday.

Spider-Man: Homecoming is second in line to be released when it comes to Marvel Cinematic Universe films. This production is a joint venture between Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios, serving as the first addition to the MCU following Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.

In Spider-Man: Homecoming, a young Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Tom Holland), who made his sensational debut in Captain America: Civil War, begins to navigate his newfound identity as the web-slinging super hero in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, Peter returns home, where he lives with his Aunt May (Marisa Tomei), under the watchful eye of his new mentor Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.). Peter tries to fall back into his normal daily routine – distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man – but when the Vulture (Michael Keaton) emerges as a new villain, everything that Peter holds most important will be threatened.

The cast includes Tom Holland, Michael Keaton, Zendaya, Donald Glover, Jacob Batalon, Laura Harrier, Tony Revolori, Tyne Daly, Bokeem Woodbine, with Marisa Tomei, and Robert Downey Jr. It also includes Jon Favreau, Martin Starr, Kenneth Choi, Michael Mando, Selenis Leyva, Isabella Amara, Jorge Lendeborg, Jr., JJ Totah, and Hannibal Buress.
