Partway through today's Samsung Galaxy Unpacked, a familiar face swung through: Spider-Man.

Ahead of the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day at the end of July, Samsung played a video of all the phones the superhero breaks while trying to save New York City. But, thankfully, the new Samsung foldable phone is apparently much more durable.

SEE ALSO: I tried Samsung's new foldables. They have a cool factor the iPhone can't match.

During the video, however, Spider-Man is suspiciously silent, leading viewers to think that the company couldn't get actor Tom Holland to appear. But no matter, his friend Ned Leeds (Jacob Batalon) was able to show off the new phone in his stead. Jacob Batalon even made an appearance on the Unpacked Stage in London to show off the phone.

And Spider-Man (OK, some guy in a Spider-Man suit) even popped in to close out the segment.
