See Spider-Man Easter eggs hidden in Peter Parker’s apartment
Little Caesars and Sony Pictures have recreated Peter Parker’s apartment for fans to tour and find Easter eggs.
This day became “Brand New Day” in New York City. Dozens of “Spider-Man” fans, some wearing Spider-Man suits, lined up outside a Brooklyn warehouse for a one-day Little Caesars pop-up celebrating the upcoming movie “Spider-Man: Brand New Day.”
Little Caesars just launched its trending Weberoni Pizza, a “menu inspired by the world’s favorite superhero,” and invited fans and media members to a pop-up “inspired by Spider-Man’s hometown of Queens,” giving fans a chance to tour Peter Parker’s apartment and sample the new pizza. It features a “web” of shredded pepperoni and toasted cheese on top.
Needless to say, my spicy senses were tingling with excitement.
The apartment was littered with Easter eggs from the new movie starring Spider-Man actor Tom Holland and Peter Park’s girlfriend Zendaya Michelle Jones-Watson (MJ). A Little Caesars representative who attended the event on Saturday, June 27, said that while none of the items in the pop-up were movie set props, they were exact replicas of those used in the movie, adding that the pop-up’s designers worked closely with the movie’s set designers to bring Peter Parker’s apartment to life.
Here are all the easter eggs I’ve seen.

missing cat poster
Even before entering the apartment, visitors were greeted by a poster of the missing cat Buster on the wall. The poster included a phone number and participants were encouraged to call the number for the surprise.
Notes and receipts on the refrigerator
I found a bouquet of flowers on the kitchen counter and a note on the refrigerator that said, “Bring flowers to Aunt May.” Is the flower MJ or Aunt May?
Also, there was a receipt for a pizza order from Little Caesars on the refrigerator, and a Little Caesars representative said that Peter Parker was eating the chain’s pizza in the movie.
Letter to MJ
A letter from Peter Parker to MJ on a metal shelf also caught my eye. In the note, Spider-Man explains why he had to make her forget him, telling her that he still loves her and hopes that “deep inside you, something inside you remembers that you love me too.”
Call from Dr. Banner’s assistant
Mark Ruffalo returns as Dr. Bruce Banner/Hulk, who “discovered a way to suppress mutations in DNA.” Peter asks him for help, which explains why his assistant called Spider-Man.
Who is the new villain?
According to the film’s synopsis, Peter Parker is trying to uncover the identity of a “powerful, invisible villain” who poses a “shocking threat to the city and the people he loves.”
The apartment also contained Parker’s workstation, a bed in the corner of his bedroom, and various company flyers and posters.
Limited Edition Collector’s Spider-Man Poster
To celebrate Weberoni Pizza and the new movie, Little Caesars will be giving away a free poster with the purchase of a themed pizza starting July 6th. The chain says there will be three limited edition poster designs that will be “updated weekly” for the July 31 release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. In addition, Little Caesars pizza will be served in a newly designed pizza box inspired by Spider-Man.
