New Spider-Man Movie May Have Found Its Villain [UPDATE]

[UPDATE] The Hollywood Reporter’s Borys Kit reports that talks with Michael Keaton never proceeded further than the offer stage, and it seems that Keaton will not be joining Spider-Man: Homecoming’s cast. The original story follows:

Marvel’s new Spider-Man movie has been titled, and now it looks like we may know who’s playing the villain. According to Deadline, Batman actor Michael Keaton is reportedly in talks to play an unspecified villain in Spider-Man: Homecoming.

The film is a co-production between Sony and Marvel, and both studios have declined to comment on Deadline’s information. Keaton playing a role in Homecoming would mark his return to comic book movies–his last appearance was Batman Returns as the Caped Crusader himself.

We’ve seen the likes of the Green Goblin, Doc Ock, Sandman, and other baddies in previous Spidey films, but the villain Keaton will play is unconfirmed at this moment. GameSpot will keep you up to date as more information becomes available.

What we do know is Spider-Man will be played by Tom Holland. His first apperance will be in next month’s Captain America: Civil War, along with Marisa Tomei as Aunt May. You can watch a trailer featuring your friendly neighborhood webslinger right here.
