For the last two years, I've been trying to parse out exactly who director Jon Watts is. Ever since he got the gig to direct
Spider-Man: Homecoming back in June 2015, I've pondered how a guy who had been flying so under my radar managed to nab one of the most coveted directing gigs in Hollywood at the time. While technically the indie horror film
Clown was the first feature-length movie Jon Watts ever helmed,
Cop Car was released first in a number of countries including the United States and was the motion picture that apparently caught the attention of Sony/Marvel to the point that they handed him the reins to Spidey.
