Donald Glover joins Spider-Man: Homecoming

June 14, 2016 by Gary Collinson

The Hollywood Reporter has revealed that Donald Glover (Community, The Martian) is in talks to appear in Sony and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Homecoming, although details of his role are being kept under wraps.

This isn’t Glover’s first brush with the wall-crawler; prior to The Amazing Spider-Man, there was a social media campaign for Glover to win the role of Spidey, and although it ultimately went to Andrew Garfield, Glover went on to voice Miles Morales in the animated series Ultimate Spider-Man.

Spider-Man: Homecoming is being directed by Jon Watts (Cop Car) and sees Tom Holland and Marisa Tomei reprising their roles from Captain America: Civil War as Peter Parker/Spider-Man and Aunt May. They’ll be joined by Marvel regular Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark, alongside Michael Keaton (Birdman), Michael Barbieri (Little Men), Zendaya (K.C. Undercover), Tony Revolori (The Grand Budapest Hotel) and Laura Harrier (One Life to Live) and Kenneth Choi (Captain America: The First Avenger). It is set for release on July 7th 2017.
